“That is football, no one can question the character of these players because they don’t ever give up and give in," United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said after their draw with Atalanta.
"They just keep going. We had to make changes and they worked. “The goal was a proper team goal, great quality on the passing, four or five or six passes before that little exchange as well.
“You don’t plan to concede a goal, I thought it was offside, usually he would save that one. The atmosphere was electric, very physical and hard to play against.”
The last time Villarreal hosted United in a competitive match was 25 November 2008.
The two teams played to a 0-0 draw in the Champions League Group E match which was played at the Estadio de la Cerámica.
