Comments:

This was Villarreal's first-ever major European competition final. Although they won the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2003 and 2004, their only domestic honour remained as the Tercera División title in 1969-70 (the fourth tier of Spanish football). The population of Villarreal is around 50,000 - two-thirds of the capacity of Manchester United's Old Trafford.
