Villarreal defender Pau Torres has warned Liverpool not to underestimate them.
Villarreal meet Liverpool in the Champions League semifinals.
Torres said, “It is a rival that we all know what characterises them, with forwards who run very well into space and know very well how they play. They have practically the best players in the world. And they come from beating Manchester United easily, the other day against City. But we are adapting very well to the rivals that are ahead of us in this competition.
“I think Bayern attacked with more people. Liverpool makes it more direct when they steal with those ahead, they quickly look for spaces behind your back. I think it will be a different game, in which you will have to control these spaces when they have the opportunity to make passes.
“They have great passers both in the centre of the field and on the wings, so you will have to be very focused. We will have to get a good result in the first leg to be able to dream for the second leg.
“Salah, Mane, Diego Jota, Luís Díaz…there are many and all very good. Each one with his characteristics but all with the common speed, they are very dangerous with spaces. We will have to be very attentive and defend as a team, that is giving us many things. From there we must be very effective and take the game where we want.”
