Unai Emery explains importance of Villarreal’s Europa League victory over Manchester United

Unai Emery has reacted to his Villarreal side’s Europa League victory on penalties against Manchester United in Gdansk.

The Spaniard secured redemption 18 months since his Arsenal sacking by guiding the Yellow Submarines to a historic first European trophy.
