Villarreal have defeated Lyon 2-0 to move to the top of the Emirates Cup table.
The Yellow Submarine climb above tournament hosts Arsenal courtesy of their second win of the weekend in North London.
Marcelino's men almost found a way through with less than 10 minutes on the clock, but Gerard Moreno was unable to find the net with his headed attempt.
Alphonse Areola then had to be alert up the other end to keep the ball out, while a free kick from range was also heading goalwards until the Frenchman intervened.
Moments after Lyon had struck the post, Bruno Soriano edged Villarreal ahead when converting from the penalty spot after Dylan Mboumbouni clumsily brought down an opponent inside the box.
Les Gones again came within the width of the bar of finding the net through Bakary Kone's header, with the missed chance proving costly as Leo Baptistao was able to wrap things up just short of the hour.
Lyon, who shipped six against Arsenal on Saturday afternoon, remain bottom of the group after their final match.
