Villarreal's disappointing season continued after they were knocked out of the Europa League by Wolfsburg. The 2-2 draw from the first leg meant that they really needed a victory to go through, but with only a quarter of an hour on the clock they were already two down, Dzeko beating Diego López with an impressive shot and Angel putting through his own net. Capdevila headed one back, but before the half time whistle Gentner restored the two goal lead from Dzeko's cross, and after the restart Grafite scored his third of the tie to make sure of the result.
