Geraerd Moreno gave Villarreal the lead on the half hour after he was teed up by Dani Parejo before Edinson Cavani equalised 10 minutes into the second half from a Scott McTominay assist.
However, the drama was still to come as 120 minutes played out with no further goals to send it to spot kicks between the two sides.
After a perfect exchange of 10 goals apiece, United goalkeeper David De Gea was the unlucky man to miss and hand Villarreal victory.
