After making sure that the players, the other officials, and everything else were ready, the referee blew his whistle to signal the start of the match.
"There's the whistle and we are on the way."
As soon as Fredinho heard that whistle, he quickly passed the ball to Ferran who didn't hesitate in sending it to Martinez.
Unlike in their match against Lazio where they used the four-four-two formation, they were back to using their normal formation in this one.
Four-three-three formation with Martinez in the defensive midfield position and Ferran and Minino upfront as the attacking midfielders.
Norman Kole was in the right back position with Adolf and Pirlo covering the center and Roland on the left.
Their attack had Mateo on the left obviously, Fredinho in the middle, and Merino on the right.
Villarreal were also playing with the four-three-three formation but it was the normal type with just three central midfielders.
