On Wednesday, three of the first quarter-final matches of the King's Cup of Spain were played. An unexpected result was recorded at the "Wanda Metropolitano" stadium - Madrid's "Atletico" unexpectedly lost to the recently not very confident "Sevilla" team at the end of the match. In the 73rd minute, Diego Costa brought "Rojiblancos" ahead, but then "Sevilla" equalized. In the 80th minute after Jesus Navas's shot, Miguel Moya was forced to pull the ball out of his goal. After the equalizing goal, "Atletico" tried to regain the lost advantage, but in the 88th minute, the opponents were punished again - Joaquin Correa sent a second goal into the hosts' net and expanded the victory. "Atletico" will try to retaliate next week when they face Sevilla in the return leg. A similar victory was achieved by the "Valencia" team, who fought at home against "Alaves". The latter scored in the 66th minute, but the "Bats" did not stay behind - after seven minutes, Goncalo Guedes equalized the score, and Rodrigo's precise shot in the 82nd minute led to victory. In the last match of the evening, two Barcelona teams met - "Espanyol" unexpectedly beat "Barcelona" with a score of 1-0. In the 61st minute, Lionel Messi had the opportunity to bring "Barca" ahead, but Diego Lopez reacted to the Argentine's shot from the penalty spot, and in the 88th minute, unexpectedly "Espanyol" punished the visitors - Oscar Melendo sent them into knockout with a precise shot. "Barcelona" like the other teams will be able to retaliate in the return leg. Results: "Atletico" 1 - 2 "Sevilla" 73' [1 - 0] D. Costa 80' [1 - 1] M. Moya (own goal) 88' [1 - 2] J.
