- 87'
Everton will throw everything they possibly have at Villarreal in these final minutes. Ferguson is camped on the edge of the home penalty area and is winning everything in the air at the moment.
- 86'
Everton win another corner, but Arteta's delivery isn't as pin-point as it was a few minutes ago, and the home side clear.
- 85'
Television replays are showing that the decision to disallow the goal was, erm, contentious; Bent and his marker were tugging at each other with equal force, and certainly had nothing to do with Ferguson heading past the keeper. A 'talking point', that one...
- 84'
Villarreal are no longer keeping the ball with the same ease and poise that they were half-an-hour ago; now the Everton players are swarming around the man on the ball, and are exerting a lot of pressure.
- 83'
If Everton go out, they can at least say they gave it a great shot; they have been outplayed for most of both games of this tie, and yet are still clinging on going in to the final minutes.
- 82'
SUB: Tacchinardi comes on for Figueroa. Villarreal show their concern by bringing on veteran defensive midfielder Tacchinardi for striker Figueroa.
- 81'
...NO! DISALLOWED! Collina rules that Bent was holding the shirt of his marker as the players rose to try and meet the corner. His decision is met with howls of derision from the Everton fans, and a strong protest from the Everton players.
- 81'
GOAL! The corner is curled in to the middle, and Ferguson buries a header past Barbosa...
- 80'
Oooh! A nice move from Everton releases Hibbert in to the penalty area. He clips a lofted cross to the back post, but Ferguson's thumping header is palmed clear by Barbosa.
- 80'
SUB: McFadden on for Davies. The young Scottish winger comes on for Davies, who has worked hard tonight.
- 79'
Oooh! Great effort from Sorin, as he attempts a cheeky left foot-behind-right foot shot from the edge of the area.
- 78'
A nice move from Villarreal almost carves open Everton again; Sorin feeds Forlan in the box, but his blind cut-back to the penalty spot fails to find a colleague.
- 77'
Villarreal appeal for a penalty as Sorin in bundled over in the area by Yobo. It would have been very harsh on Everton, though their young centre-back didn't really seem to be paying too much attention to the ball as he ran in to the Villareal man.
- 76'
Figueroa spends a ludicrous amount of time writhing around on the turf after a challenge from Neville. It was a foul, sure - but GET UP!
- 75'
Of course, a single Villarreal goal would all-but kill the tie, and Riquelme is beginning to get a lot more space as the Everton midfield press forward in search of this crucial second goal.
- 74'
Though it would be unfair to say that Villarreal look ruffled, they certainly seem to be a little more tense following Arteta's goal, and there are a few more errors creeping in to their defensive play.
- 74'
Oooh! Cahill sends in a cross from the left wing. It is deflected and bounces off the top of the crossbar. Barbosa doesn't seem to know where the ball is, and Alvarez is forced to head clear from off his own line.
- 73'
Riquelme takes the corner. Instead of curling it in to the middle, he clips it to the edge of the area, though Senna's shot is wide of Martyn's near post.
- 72'
Good persistence and determination from Forlan wins his side a corner; he chases a long ball in to the corner, whips in a cross and Davies is forced to put the ball behind at the far post.
- 71'
The goal has really brought the stadium to life; the Everton fans have found their voice again, and will be beginning to believe that their side can get right back in to the game.
- 70'
Another goal for Everton takes the game in to extra-time, a prospect that has looked very unlikely for most of this match. Villarreal will be feeling a little disconcerted after dominating so far.
- 69'
GOAL! Arteta curls a superb free-kick in to the top corner. Everton are back in with a shout.
- 68'
...Arteta takes the set-piece, slightly right-of-centre...
- 67'
A nice Everton move involving Cahill, Bent and Neville ends when the full-back is brought down by Gonzalez on the edge of the area...
- 66'
Weir blocks another long-range Forlan effort. Villarreal's Uruguyan striker - rubbished at Manchester United - has again been excellent tonight, a persistent thorn in the Everton back-line.
- 65'
Neville finally gets in a position to send over a dangerous cross, which he does, left-footed towards Ferguson. The striker, built like a Giant Redwood, wins the header but there are no Everton men close enough to pounce on the loose ball.
- 64'
Oooh! The brilliant Argentine playmaker takes the free-kick himself, and whips a vicious shot only a yard or so over Martyn's bar, the goalkeeper looking on somewhat bemused.
- 63'
Riquelme wins a free-kick around 35 yards out; he is pulled back by the arm as he attempted to break forward.
- 62'
Tony Hibbert looks a little like an angry duck; angry, because your frisbee landed a little too close to its baby ducklings.
- 61'
Everton are throwing plenty of players forward for Martyn's goalkicks, attempting to win the header and create something from the knock-down. Unfortunately, this rather unimaginative, prosaic approach isn't remotely working.
- 60'
Riquelme curls a wicked corner in to the middle, which Martyn does well to hold under pressure from Figueroa.
- 60'
Oooh! Arrubarrena is set free down the left wing, but his low cross in to a crowded area is kicked away by the legs of Martyn, sprawling on the ground like a child attempting to collect his marbles.
- 59'
Everton have a few further options on the bench if they continue to struggle to break down this canny Spanish side; McFadden might be the next man introduced.
- 58'
Villarreal win a free-kick out on the left touchline. Riquelme curls the ball dangerously in to the far post, but the linesman judges Forlan off-side.
- 57'
SUB: Kilbane off, Osman on. It's an attacking substitution from Moyes, replacing left-back Kilbane with attacking midfielder Osman. Neville has dropped back in to left-back, with the substitute looking to push forward and inspire his side.
- 56'
There are loud shouts from the Everton fans for a handball as Arteta tries to clip the ball in to the penalty area, though replays showed that the ball struck Rodriguez leg.
- 55'
A deft touch from Bent begins an Everton counter-attack, but Arteta can't spot a runner in front of him that he is confident of finding with a pass, and Villarreal get back behind the ball.
- 54'
Again, Villarreal attempt to take the sting out of the game with a spell of possession around the half-way line. Even there, they look as though they could suddenly spring forward with a swift one-two, and cause Everton untold problems.
- 53'
Finally the players have a chance to catch their breath when referee Collina spots a push as two players jump to contest the corner. Everton free-kick.
- 52'
Oooh! The action continues! From the corner, Senna strikes a low shot in to the area, it is deflected goalwards, but the 39-year-old Martyn dives full-stretch to push for another corner.
- 52'
Oooh! A great spell of action continues, as Riquelme strikes a shot from 25 yards which Martyn does well to palm away for a corner.
- 51'
Oooh! Everton immediately break up the other end of the field, Davies crosses in to the middle but Ferguson unbelieveably stoops to head wide from six yards.
- 50'
Oooh! Forlan is released down the right channel, he drives in to the area but blasts his shot straight at Martyn, who stands firm to block. Great chance, Forlan should have scored.
- 49'
Kilbane lofts a free-kick in to the middle of the penalty area, but Barbosa rises unchallenged to punch clear. Surprisingly, neither Ferguson or Bent managed to haul themselves up off the turf to put the keeper under pressure.
- 49'
Bent smashes a shot well wide from outside the penalty area, but it's one of the few attempts at goal of any nature from the visitors this evening.
- 48'
A mix up in the Everton defence between Yobo and Weir allows Forlan the chance to break down the left channel, though his low cross towards Figueroa is slightly off-target.
- 47'
Kilbane is fortunate not to be sent off after a late challenge on Gonzalo; the Everton man was booked in the first half, and should probably have seen his second yellow there.
- 47'
It's a very warm night on the east coast of Spain; the sort of night that would be perfect to sit out on a roof terrace with a book and a glass of chilled white sherry.
- 46'
Everton have 45 minutes to score twice and take this time to extra-time. If they need any inspiration, they can look across the city to their neighbours Liverpool, who did something similar at the end of last season?
- 45'
We're back out for the second half. No changes in either side, and Villarreal kick off the final 45 minutes.
- 45'
HALF-TIME: Villarreal again look a class-apart. Everton are still alive, but their prospects of a revival are diminishing rapidly.
- 44'
So, David Moyes faces a daunting task to lift his side in the changing room at half-time. Of course, they only need two goals to take the game in to extra-time, but the likelihood is that they will be consistently torn apart on the break as they press forward.
- 43'
Everton always faced a tough task after they were drawn with Villarreal; they have enjoyed good runs in Europe over the last three or four years, and have a lot more European nous than their English counterparts.
- 42'
Josico and Kilbane clash as they challenged for a loose ball after Senna had lost control of it. The Villarreal man stays down, and it's a free-kick to the Spanish side.
- 42'
Cahill looks furious with himself after his sloppy through-ball ends a promising Everton attack.
- 41'
Apparently, Barbosa, the Villarreal goalkeeper, branded the Everton players 'animals' after the first leg. In fairness, Collina has been very harsh on the Everton players tonight; he has blown for every piece of physical contact.
- 40'
Oooh! Riquelme collects a throw on the right. No Everton man comes to close him down, so he crashes a right-foot shot towards goal from a tight angle, and Martyn again has to palm away for a corner.
- 39'
Riquelme whips the corner in to the near post, but Ferguson rises high to head clear.
- 38'
...Riquelme stands over the ball, fires his shot through the wall, but Martyn again dives to palm around the post.
- 38'
Sorin is fouled on the edge of the area as he runs at the Everton defence...
- 37'
Villarreal are superb at keeping hold of the ball and frustrating Everton. Riquelme is an expert at making himself available for possession, always giving his team-mates an option.
- 36'
Oooh! Forlan fires a low, left-foot shot towards goal, but Martyn palms around the post. Corner.
- 35'
Cahill robs Senna on the half-way line and sprints in to the Spanish half, though the referee deems that the little Australian midfielder fouled his opponent.
- 34'
Sorin is still wincing a little following his leg injury, though he seems prepared to run it off. Despite his hair, he's all-man.
- 33'
Another impressive Villarreal move is thwarted on the edge of the area. But, one of Everton's major problems is that when they break up these attacks, they have no outlet ball other than a thump up-field to Ferguson.
- 32'
Barbosa comes a long way through a crowd of players in an effort to punch clear Arteta's corner, though he gets nowhere near it. That will be encouraging for Everton; he doesn't look very confident on crosses.
- 31'
Everton win a corner; it's half-cleared, but Davies bravely throws himself at a header, and eventually the English side win another corner.
- 31'
This has been almost a carbon copy of the start of the first leg; they played well early on, with a lot of energy and determination, but gradually Villarreal's class is beginning to show and they are imposing themmselves on the match.
- 30'
Sorin, one of Villarreal's best players, is hobbling a little at the moment; replays are suggesting he got a knee in the leg as he climbed to compete for the ball at the previous corner.
- 29'
Villarreal win a corner when Forlan, Martyn and Weir challenge for a loose ball, which runs behind. Figueroa heads the corner over the bar.
- 28'
The Everton defence look troubled everytime Villarreal - and Forland and Figueroa in particular - run at them.
- 27'
Everton certainly have the strength and height to trouble Villarreal in the air up front, though the balls are being played from far too deep.
- 26'
Ferguson is again penalised for a foul, this time on the goalkeeper Barbosa as the two challenged for a through-ball lumped over the top of the Villarreal defence.
- 25'
There is a little disturbance in the crowd as a man is escorted from the Everton section by a burly gentleman wearing a uniform and sporting a baton. I presume he's a policeman.
- 24'
Everton defend the corner with typical determination and fervour, though they are going to need more than that to prevent a drubbing tonight; Villarreal are looking fast and loose.
- 23'
Oooh! Great feet from Forlan as he tangos around Kilbane before smashing a low shot goalwards that Martyn does well to save with his feet. Corner.
- 23'
Villarreal mount another impressive and swift counter-attack, though this time the Blue shirts flood back and manage to prevent a chance to shoot.
- 22'
That goal will certainly have eased any tension there might have been in the Villarreal camp, and they may well start playing with a little more fluidity. That would be bad for Everton, as they are known as one of the best attacking sides in Spanish football.
- 21'
In reality, the goal doesn't change the situation in the tie all that much; Everton still need to score twice to go through, but they now need three to prevent the game going to extra-time.
- 20'
GOAL! Sorin's 20-yard shot is deflected past Martyn after Villarreal had beautifully worked the ball through the middle and caught Everton a little flat-footed.
- 19'
A swift break from Davies down the right wing ends when the Welshman's through-ball towards Bent is mis-placed.
- 18'
Hibbert thumps a hopefull ball down the right channel for Bent to chase, but it's over-hit and Barobosa collects inside his area. Everton are going to have to be more creative than that.
- 17'
Villarreal are moving the ball with a great deal of assurity and composure, and they look very dangerous on the break. For what it's worth, I can see them scoring at least once tonight, which makes Everton's task very difficult.
- 16'
Oooh! Cahil misses a great chance to give Everton an early lead when he heads Neville's long throw straight at Barbosa. He should have done much better there.
- 15'
I'm told that, because of the size and scale of the President of Villarreal's tile-manufacturing business in the town, there is no unemployment in the town of Villarreal. Amazing, no?
- 14'
Davies appeals for handball when his attempted cross in to the area is deflected comfortably in to the hands of Barbosa.
- 13'
Villarreal prepare to make an early substitution: Venta off, Kromkamp on. It is a competitive debut for Kromkamp, who slots in to the right-back position.
- 12'
Everton win a free-kick out on the touchline, but their cute attempt to play the ball down the line and send over a cross is thwarted by an off-side flag.
- 11'
Martyn is alert and quick to see the danger when Riquelme flicks a good ball over the top of the defence towards Forlan, sprinting through the middle like a rabid leopard.
- 10'
Seena fires a low shot a few yards wide from 25 yards. He looks disappointed not to have hit the target, as he had quite a lot of time to line up his shot.
- 9'
Everton win a free-kick when Alvarez handballs 35 yards out. The English side load the penalty area, but Figueroa heads Arteta's free-kick clear. It was a poor delivery from Everton's Spanish midfielder.
- 8'
Collina is again quick to punish Ferguson for a foul as he jumps to challenge for a header. Ferguson, more used to the brawn and brutality of the Premiership, looks a little miffed.
- 7'
Villarreal are playing in their wonderful bright yellow kit, with Everton in their famous blue and white. Lovely stuff.
- 6'
Everton manager David Moyes slips on to the pitch for a moment to kick the ball back to an Everton player after it had briefly gone out of play. Collina isn't amused.
- 5'
The advertising hordings are very high-tech affairs; bright and multi-coloured and flashing. It's quite disconcerting to look at, and might well send me blind by the end of the night.
- 4'
There is a great atmosphere inside this tight, English-style ground; around 2,000 Everton fans have made the trip over to Spain's Meditterranean coast to cheer on their heros.
- 3'
Kilbane slides in late on Venta. Referee Collina allows play to go on, as Villarreal are mounting a counter-attack, but as soon as play is stopped, the veteran referee immediately books Kilbane. Poor start for Everton.
- 2'
Ferguson gives away an early free-kick agains Ferguson; not a good sign for Everton, as strength and aggression is something that the giant Scottish striker relies greatly upon.
- 1'
Figueroa almost wins an early corner when he wins possession from Hibbert down in the corner, but Yobo is across quickly to snuff out the danger.
We're off. Everton start this crucial second leg, with the English side needing to win by two clear goals to progress to the lucrative group stages of the Champions League.
Midfielder Simon Davies has been recalled to the side after suffering shin splits while on international duty last week.
Marcus Bent has been named in the Everton side after recovering from an ankle injury, and will partner Duncan Ferguson up front with James Beattie still sidelined.
