The Glass of the King continues with firm step and already knows to other two of his next eight qualifiers for the round of the quarter-finals. This Wednesday contested his Athletic corresponding parties of Madrid, Raise, Real Batis and Osasuna, leaving two duels of high tension that defined by two distinct roads.
The Betis received to the Osasuna in Benito Villamarín and starred an authentic partidazo, with a 'taking and daca' constant in which both groups were protagonists in all the facets of the party. The Andalusians finished in more than 20 opportunities looking for beat the goal of Sergio Herrera, attaining see door in two opportunities so much in the 90' minutes as in the extention. By his part, the navarros also showed that they are for big things and did not give his arm to twist during the commitment, equalising the actions by double game and forcing the definition by penaltis. Chimy Ávila, Borja Churches, In front of Budimir, Loren Morón, Jon Moncayola and Kike Barja annotated his shots, but the béticos Sergio Channels and Guido Rodríguez failed and gave the ticket to chambers to the picture of Pamplona.
By his part, the Athletic visited to the Raise in the Ciutat of València being a team futbolísticamente upper in terms of staff. In spite of this, the colchoneros did not have clarity during the first part and arrived to the rest with the marker (0-0), what lit again the alarms in the management of the 'Cholo' Simeone. It did not go until the 54' of the complement that Álvaro Morata could open the tin after a big desborde of Marcos Llorente, the one who sent in a centre raso that the '9' commanded at the end of the network. Already on the hour in the aggregated time, would be again Llorente the one who would appear in scene thanks to a habilitation of Nahuel Molina to sentence the pass to chambers with a (2-0) lapidarian.
Possible rivals of the Barça
Like this the things, so much the Atleti like the Osasuna will have a place ensured in the following round and the draw will define against the one who will see the faces. Both can cross between them but also could measure in front of historical clubs of the competition, like FC Barcelona or Real Madrid. This if, as long as they achieve a contingent in the bass drums surpassing his respective crosses of eighth this Thursday.
The culés will confront in front of the AD Ceuta in the Municipal Stadium Alfonso Murube, a rival that, a priori, would have to be affordable for the Barça. Nevertheless, when being an eliminatory to only party there is not at all guaranteeed, more still taking into account that neither Ronald Araújo neither Frenkie of Jong will be presents in territory ceutí. Anyway, the ones of Xavi Hernández, to seal his classification, could star a big show in front of the colchonero, that occupies the fourth position of the table, or in front of the navarros, those who keep alive his hopes to reach the European places.
