"It was very important. You are always happy when you score a goal and against Villarreal I had an unimaginable game because I was a substitute, I entered in the 72nd minute, I played very well and in the first contact that I had with the ball I scored the goal that gave us the victory and allowed us to gain three decisive points," said the Dutchman.
"The goal was important for me, for my confidence. I feel very happy to have made such a contribution."
Sneijder added: "I like the club, the people, the city ... so I am enjoying it here."
