Arnau Tenas, in his first season with the Yellow Submarine, has made two consecutive league starts, seizing the opportunity given by the coach. After a draw against Real Oviedo, the goalkeeper shone in the 2-1 victory against Celta de Vigo, a crucial result for Villarreal CF's European aspirations.
His performance was pivotal, not only for the confidence he exuded but also for saving a penalty. Although the save had to be retaken due to an encroachment in the box and the second attempt resulted in a goal, his intervention was a turning point in the match, forcing Villarreal to maintain composure to secure the win.
“"I always try to give my best for the team. We knew how we had to play, and I can only congratulate my teammates for the incredible effort made."
The goalkeeper expressed his satisfaction with the victory and highlighted the collective effort. He emphasized the importance of his adaptation to the club, stating that, although he has been there for almost a year, it feels like he has been with Villarreal CF his whole life. His daily work has been key to returning to the starting lineup.
The Villarreal CF coach also praised the goalkeeper's performance, highlighting his skill with his feet, aerial security, and quickness. These statements reinforce confidence in Tenas, who has transitioned from an alternative to a reliable asset in goal during the decisive stretch of the season, with the Champions League objective still pending mathematical confirmation.
