The Nigeria forward opened his goal account for the season as the Yellow Submarines were held in their league opener on Saturday

Samuel Chukwueze was on target as Villarreal were held to a 4-4 draw by Granada in their opening La Liga fixture.

Chukwueze was in action for the entire 90 minutes as both teams settled for a share of the spoils at the Estadio de la Ceramica on Saturday.

The 20-year-old found the back of the net in the 73rd minute with his left-footed finish to give the hosts a 4-2 lead, although they conceded twice shortly after.

Cameroon duo Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa and Karl Toko Ekambi were also in action for Villarreal while Nigeria’s Ramon Azeez replaced Cameroon’s Yan Eteki in the 69th minute for Granada.

Villarreal will hope to claim their first win of the season when they visit Levante for their next league outing on August 23.
