On-loan Real Madrid midfielder Takefusa Kubo made his Villarreal debut in their 3-1 friendly win over Cartagena on Sunday evening.

Kubo played the second half of what was also Unai Emery's first game in charge of the Yellow Submarine.

New signings Dani Parejo and Francis Coquelin also made their debuts after joining from Valencia.
