Black Stars deputy captain Thomas Partey featured for 46 minutes as Villarreal endured a disappointing defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champions League.
During his time on the pitch, the Ghanaian midfielder was involved in the build-up play, registering 27 touches and completing two passes in the final third.
Partey showed glimpses of his usual composure and distribution, though Villarreal were unable to turn possession into goals.
Despite the setback, the former Arsenal star remains a key figure in Villarreal’s midfield, expected to lead the team in upcoming European and domestic fixtures.
