Let me know if there are any mistakes, or if there's something you want me to change
Half time, rather clean game even with Osasuna´s fouls considering we had no added time. 0-0 at the moment. Ngl, Villarreal need to play faster down the left and right considering how the last corner they got was due to just outspeeding Osasuna on the counter, combine that with what their midfield pressure is trying to do, and they could just end up overwhelming Osasuna in centers to the box for goals. As in, maybe the midfield goes down with one of the wingers and it causes a 4v2 situation of midfield plus winger vs 2 defenders if that makes sense.
That said they better do that fast because Osasuna near the end of the half has finally managed to find a way to break through the midfield of Villarreal, just do short passes so the pressure is accumulated in one zone and then start doing longer passes to set up for shots or crosses, with shots being the better choice tbh since whenever they tried a cross, for the most part it was kicked away by the defense due to so many players there lol. Anywho yeah, 0-0 at the moment though it feels like Villarreal need ASAP to switch for faster players so that they can score a goal due to having too many players on Osasuna´s box for them to stop the crosses into goals before Osasuna manage to put one past Jorgensen which is seeming likelier at the moment.
