Barcelona have qualified for the Copa del Rey final. The Catalans beat Atletico Madrid again at their Wanda Metropolitano - this time 1:0, and after a 4:4 draw in the first leg, they secured a final with arch-rivals Real Madrid.
After an eight-goal spectacle in the first leg, Hansi Flick's men secured victory after Ferran Torres' precise intervention. Lamine Yamal assisted him in the 27th minute. Atleti were unable to respond to the challenge until the end, eventually finishing without a shot on goal towards the visitors' goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, and conceded a second defeat to their opponents on home soil after a 2:4 in La Liga.
Thus, Barca set up a dream clash with Real Madrid, who dramatically eliminated Real Sociedad after extra time.
Barcelona holds the record for most trophies with 31, while Real has 20. The last El Clasico in the final was in 2014, when Real won 2:1. The dispute for the trophy in this year's edition is on April 26 and will be held at the La Cartuja stadium in Seville. | BGNES
