Villarreal Cfright Villarreal Club de Futbol, sometimes abbreviated to Villarreal, is a Spanish Primera Division football club based in Villarreal, a small suburb of Castelln de la Plana. They play at the 26,000 seater El Madrigal stadium. Their famous rivals are Valencia CF and their derbies are one of the most exciting in the Primera Liga. They achieved something of a proud moment as they played the semi-final of the UEFA Cup for 2003/2004, however, losing to their more illustrious neighbor who went on to win the Cup. They have been a regular fixture in the Primera Liga for many years and have recently signed Uruguayan striker Diego Forln. Their squad has also been bolstered with the presence of South American talents like Juan Pablo Sorin, Juan Roman Riquelme as well as former Spain striker Jos Mari. Their home uniform is yellow shirt, blue shorts and blue socks. They are nicknamed the los submarinos amarillos (the yellow submarines) because of their yellow shirts. Their mascot is a figure with a submarine head. External links
