Nasri misses penalty as Sevilla frustrated by Villarreal


BARCELONA (Reuters) - Sevilla's hopes of winning a first league title since 1946 suffered a severe dent after they were held to a goalless draw at home by Villarreal on Sunday, with Samir Nasri missing a penalty in the second half.

Nasri's tame effort was caught by Villarreal goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo in the 49th minute after Mario Gaspar was penalised for tussling with Vitolo in the area. Sevilla's Wissam Ben Yedder later had a goal harshly ruled out for offside.
