Mbappe double at Villarreal takes Real Madrid top
Kylian Mbappe's brace helped Real Madrid climb top of La Liga with a 2-1 win at Villarreal on Saturday. Los Blancos moved three points clear of rivals Barcelona, having played two extra games, with the Catalans visiting third place Atletico Madrid on Sunday in a key clash in the Spanish title race. Madrid were unhappy the game was taking place fewer than 72 hours after their Champions League win on penalties against Atletico on Wednesday. However despite their complaints they had enough in the tank to beat their opponents, fifth, at the Estadio de la Ceramica. Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti began with Vinicius Junior on the bench after the draining victory against Atletico in the last 16. Villarreal started strongly and Thibaut Courtois got down well to his right to tip Ayoze Perez's shot around the post. From the resulting corner Villarreal took the lead, with the ball rebounding to Foyth, who smashed home from close range. Ancelotti's side hit back quickly, with Mbappe levelling after 17 minutes. Brahim Diaz's attempted lob was saved by Diego Conde, but the French striker dispatched the rebound with minimal fuss. Soon Mbappe had his second, helping to spread the ball to the right and then finishing with aplomb after Lucas Vazquez found him in the middle of the box. It was Mbappe's 20th league goal of the season, putting him one behind the top scorer, Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski. Content with their lead Madrid soaked up Villarreal pressure in the rest of the first half, with Courtois saving well from Nicolas Pepe. Villarreal coach Marcelino Garcia Toral sent on Thierno Barry for Pepe at the break, as the Yellow Submarine looked to avoid a first home defeat in La Liga by Madrid since 2017. Foyth might have levelled early in the second half but volleyed over the bar when well placed. Ancelotti sent on Vinicius and Luka Modric to try and help Madrid put the game to bed and they regained some control from the enterprising hosts. Conde saved from Fede Valverde and at the other end Perez came close with a sharp turn and powerful effort which flew just over Courtois' crossbar, which was as close as his side came to a leveller. Earlier Mallorca beat Espanyol 2-1 with a late Vedat Muriqi penalty, with the target man making amends after scoring an own goal and missing another spot-kick. Celta Vigo beat bottom of the table Valladolid 1-0, inflicting their 20th defeat of the season. rbs/nr

Aston Villa plotting summer moves for two Villarreal stars
Aston Villa have set their sights on the La Liga market in the last couple of years, and the expectation is that their focus will continue into the summer. Head coach Unai Emery and sporting director Monchi are both very familiar with Spanish football, so it is perhaps no surprise that the Premier League side are exploring this. They managed to recruit from this market in January as rightback Andres Garcia joined from Segunda side Levante. However, they also missed out on multiple targets, as moves for Loic Bade and Juan Foyth broke down during the winter transfer window. However, Aston Villa have decided not to be deterred, and a renewed approach is expected to be made in the summer. According to TBR Football, they will renew their interest in Foyth, while Villarreal teammate Alex Baena will also be on their list of targets. Foyth was targeted by Aston Villa after they missed out on Bade. A deal had looked possible at one stage, but in the end, it was ruled out. Nevertheless, Emery appears determined to be reunited with the player that he brought to Villarreal from Tottenham Hotspur back in October 2020. Baena has been a long-term target for Aston Villa, and Villarreal are expected to be open to offers during the summer transfer window. The 23-year-old playmaker turned down a big-money move to Al Ahli earlier this month, which gives hope to the rest of his suitors, which also includes Atletico Madrid. It looks like being another busy summer for Villarreal, who have regularly sold their prized assets in the last few years. Foyth and Baena could be the latest to go, joining the likes of Filip Jorgensen, Samuel Chukwueze and Nicolas Jackson in having left La Ceramica for pastures new. In the meantime, both players are focused on the remainder of the season.
