Giuseppe Rossi put Villarreal ahead after seven minutes before Duda swung a left-footed free kick to draw level in the 30th minute.

Joseba Llorente thought he had won it for Villarreal as he put the visitors in front again in the 49th minute with his sixth goal of the season.

But Rosario headed an injury-time equaliser beyond goalkeeper Diego Lopez from a tight angle to deny the Yellow Submarines.
