2005–06 UEFA Champions League [ edit ]

The 2005–06 season brought the club considerable European success and recognition, 1️⃣ due to their consistent performances in the Champions League. In the qualifying round stage, Villarreal controversially defeated English side Everton 1️⃣ with a 4–2 aggregate score with two 2–1 victories. In the group stage, Villarreal were to be in the same 1️⃣ group as Portuguese champions Benfica, French club Lille, and England's Manchester United. Remaining undefeated throughout the group stage, Villarreal were 1️⃣ twice victorious (1–0 each against Benfica away and Lille at home) and earned four draws, including two scoreless draws with 1️⃣ Manchester United. They topped their group and progressed to the knock-out stages along with Benfica. The club progressed to the 1️⃣ quarter-finals in their Champions League debut by defeating the Scottish club Rangers 3–3 on the away goals rule (a 2–2 1️⃣ draw in Glasgow and a 1–1 draw at home gave the Spanish side one more away goal than their opponents).

El 1️⃣ Submarino Amarillo drew Italian giants Inter Milan in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. The first leg was played at 1️⃣ the San Siro on 29 March 2006, where Villarreal's Diego Forlán scored inside the first minute of the match, but 1️⃣ Villarreal lost 2–1 as Inter took a lead to the return leg at El Madrigal on 4 April. Villarreal, however, 1️⃣ continued their unbeaten home record in the Champions League after winning the second leg 1–0 to qualify for the semi-finals 1️⃣ on the away goals rule (the tie ended 2–2 on aggregate, but because of Forlán's goal in Milan, Villarreal advanced). 1️⃣ During that game, left-back Rodolfo Arruabarrena turned a back header from Juan Román Riquelme free kick past Inter goalkeeper Francesco 1️⃣ Toldo to score the decisive goal of the tie. In the semi-finals, Villarreal narrowly lost out to Arsenal on a 1️⃣ 1–0 aggregate scoreline following Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann's save of Riquelme's last-minute penalty.
