Villarreal matchwinner Danjuma on Bayern Munich shock: Emery is a tactical mastermind

Villarreal matchwinner Arnaut Danjuma hailed coach Unai Emery after their Champions League win against Bayern Munich.

Danjuma struck as Villarreal won their quarterfinal first-leg 1-0.

He said, "Champions League nights are incomparable. We can still be so much better than we've shown today. Then again, if you win 1-0 against Bayern and can still improve, that's a positive. Unai is a tactical mastermind. We're confident in him and he's confident in us – it goes hand in hand."

Man of the Match Giovani Lo Celso also said: "We had it completely clear that we had to attack and defend as a unit. I want to thank the coaching staff for having faith in me to start this match.

"Now the tie is still open and while it will not be easy next week I think that if we are totally concentrated in the second match we'll have our possibilities to go through."
