Guirassy&#8217;s penalty was well saved by Villarreal goalie Luiz Junior but the Guinean tapped in the rebound to double Dortmund&#8217;s lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adeyemi got on the scoresheet just before the half hour mark when he pressured former Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey into a rushed clearance, which bounced in off the German&#8217;s leg.&nbsp;<strong>Fabio Silva hit a late penalty<\/strong>&nbsp;against the crossbar but Daniel Svensson headed in off Pascal Gross in stoppage time to add gloss to the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The loss continued Villarreal&#8217;s poor form in Europe this season, despite an impressive domestic campaign.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.besoccer.com\/team\/villarreal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Villarreal<\/a>&nbsp;have&nbsp;<strong>claimed just one point from five Champions League matches<\/strong>, but sit third in La Liga, three points behind leaders Real Madrid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serhou Guirassy scored twice as Borussia Dortmund beat  [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1854,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1853","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1853","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1853"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1853\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1855,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1853\/revisions\/1855"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1854"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1853"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1853"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1853"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
