Cup day Wednesday without surprises, with Rayo Vallecano the only team unable to beat their rival in 90 minutes
Another day of the second round of the Copa del Rey, with another five First Division teams in contention. Another chance for the Cinderella Cups to surprise the League teams after this Tuesday’s all-out wins. However, we have come across another plenary session of the greats, who are generally clearly fixing the matches.
Rayo Vallecano raised the curtain on this Copa del Rey matchday on Wednesday and did so by visiting Atlético Saguntino, a Valencian team. A very tight game that was finally decided from the penalty spot after 120 goalless minutes. Two failures by the Saguntos put the tie on a plate for a Rayo Vallecano who won 1-3.
Real Sociedad and Osasuna for their part quickly got their games back on track in the first half. Imanol Alguacil’s men went into the break with a three-goal lead against Coria, and the game eventually ended with a resounding 0-5.
The rojilos did the same and sealed the game on the half hour mark against Arnedo, who scored his special honorary goal in the second half. Valladolid also won comfortably, but had to come back in the 29th minute from Arenas de Getxo’s opening goal to eventually win 1-5.
In the end, Sevilla, now without Isco in the selection, easily defeated Juventud Torremolinos 0-3. This Thursday it will be the turn of Girona, Celta and Atlético de Madrid on the last day of this second round of the Copa del Rey.
