Nigeria’s Samuel Chukwueze was among the scorers when Villarreal bashed third division side, Club Deportivo Santa Amalia 9-0 in a first round fixture of the Copa Del Rey.

The Nigerian winger scored a brace on 47 and 49 minutes of the game.

It was his fifth goal in 21 matches across all competitions so far this season and his seventh in 12 appearances since he made a scoring debut in the competition in Villarreal’s 3-3 draw with Almeria in the first leg of the intermediate stage in November 2018.
