Madrid “Real” breaks the fate of qualification with “Barcelona” and will play the final with “Osasuna”.

Having won the first match at Santiago Bernabeu with a score of 1:0, Barcelona started the match at Camp Nou aggressively.

The Catalans had a good pace of play and controlled the match until the end of the first half. Thibaut Courtois made some very safe saves and Los Blancos struck on the counter-attack. Vinicius Junior scored against Ter Stegen (min. 45+1), in a phase where the guests were also a little lucky.

The reigning Spanish champions were much brighter in the second half, with Karim Benzema striking 5 minutes into the second half.

Xavi’s men could not recover, Cassie was fouled in the penalty area, and the central defender decided to play Real’s penalty.

With the penalty, Karim Benzema did not forgive and sent Ter Stegen to the opposite corner (min. 58).

The guests once again punished the opponent on the counterattack in the 81st minute of the match, when Karim Benzema elegantly scored from Vinicius’ pass.

In the final act of the competition, Real Madrid will face Osasuna, who advanced to the semi-finals against Athletic Bilbao 2-1 on aggregate.
