Mallorca and Villarreal played out a cagey 0-0 draw at the Iberostar stadium, meaning the visitors missed the chance to keep the pressure on Valencia for La Liga\u2019s third automatic qualification spot in next season’s Champions League.<\/p>\n
The match was set to be a heated affair after Villarreal had replaced Mallorca in the Europa League, after the Islanders’ recent financial struggles, but both teams seemed to lack the fiery passion in a typical end-of-season encounter.<\/p>\n
The first half passed at a slow pace, and the home side, roared on by the crowd, struggled to threaten in a half of few chances, with the exception of a pair of hopeful Emilio Nsue efforts.<\/p>\n
Villarreal went closest with in-form striker Gisueppe Rossi striking the post after being fed by Nilmar, while Marcos Senna also went close.<\/p>\n
The away side started the second half the better, with Nilmar forcing German Lux, who was in goal for the injured Dudu Aouate, into a strong save low to his right.<\/p>\n
Pierre Webo twice livened the home support, forcing Diego Lopez into a highly impressive reflex stop with a header before again testing the goalkeeper with a second headed effort.<\/p>\n
Nilmar again tested Lux with a forceful drive from the right side of the box, but the Argentine was equal to the effort, and held onto the ball.<\/p>\n
The Brazilian’s was the last clear opportunity in a match which contained very few, and Villarreal remain five points behind Valencia, while Mallorca\u2019s season is over, with a mid-table finish firmly secured.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
