Villarreal FC Spanish Cup - Copa del Rey Tickets

Villarreal Club de Fútbol, S.A.D., otherwise simply known as Villarreal CF, are a side that are known throughout Spain, however their performances specifically in the Copa del Rey, have perhaps excited fans at times. The club, who hail from Valencian Community, may have failed to reach the final in each of the times that they have participated, however supporters continue to flock to the 24,890 capacity Estadio de la Cerámica stadium when the tournament appears on their schedule each season.

The club, who are nicknamed El Submarí Groguet or El Submarino Amarillo by their fans or those associated with the team, may not have been the biggest side in the country, however they have still had some quality individuals as part of their squad over the years. Men such as Bruno Soriano, Santi Cazorla, Giuseppe Rossi, Diego Forlán, Juan Román Riquelme, Carlos Bacca, Paco Alcácer and Ramiro Funes Mori as well as others have all featured for the club.

Villarreal have really struggled to garner any momentum in the competition over the years, as they have only reached the semi-finals on one occasion. The club, though, have been regular fixtures of the Round of 16 or even the quarter-finals.

With appearances at those particular stages of the tournament, it appears to be something that fans can always expect to see their side achieve, therefore continuing to get behind them.

Indeed, it would be no surprise if the 2014/15 Copa del Rey provided Villarreal CF with some of their most memorable moments as they managed to record some big results on their way to the semi-final.

Despite losing to FC Barcelona in the Last Four, El Submarino Amarillo had to overcome challenges from Real Sociedad and Getafe with some tight scorelines having been produced.

There have been some poor performances, though, over the years that fans will want to forget as Villarreal have gone out in the 2nd round at times in recent years, with a defeat to Girona FC in the 2004/05 edition of the Copa del Rey standing out.
