Emery's Villarreal eye another giant-killing at Bayern Munich

"We've beaten one of the best teams in the world," said captain Dani Parejo after Villarreal secured a 1-0 victory over Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final last week. But he knows it might not be enough.

Villarreal enjoyed one of the finest nights in the club's history with a superb performance at La Ceramica that caught the six-time European champions cold.

Unai Emery's side will take a one-goal lead into Tuesday's second leg in Germany, yet the overriding feeling was regret as a series of missed chances kept Bayern alive.

"We produced a tremendous performance" said Villarreal midfielder Giovani Lo Celso.

Instead, a one-goal deficit is far from insurmountable for a team that has scored 17 goals in their last five games at home and 20 in their last four European matches at the Allianz Arena.
