Samuel Chukwueze featured as a substitute as Villarreal fell to a 2-0 defeat against Manchester United in their UEFA Champions League clash at the Estadio de la Ceramica on Tuesday night.

Chukwueze replaced Yeremi Pino 13 minutes from time.

It was the Nigeria international’s third appearance in the competition for the Yellow Submarine this season.

Cristiano Ronaldo gave Manchester the lead 12 minutes from time.
It was Ronaldo’s sixth Champions League goal this season.

Jadon Sancho’s emphatic finish sealed the victory in the 90th minute after a well-worked team goal to hand United all three points and, as a result, they have qualified for the knockout phases with a game to spare, while Villarreal will have to fight it out with Atalanta for the runners-up spot.
