PreviousDirect

Guruzeta put the hosts ahead in San Mamés in the first minute of play.

Athletic Bilbao and FC Barcelona meet in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey, a phase that began yesterday with Real Sociedad's victory over Celta de Vigo.

The last time both teams met in the Cup, the red and white team eliminated the Blaugrana, already led by Xavi Hernández, in the round of 16 of the 2021/2022 edition of the competition.

This background reinforces Athletic's aspirations for tonight, in addition to being a team that has recently become strong in the single-game playoffs.

On the other hand, Barça has the balance in recent duels in its favor: The Blaugrana have won the Lions in the last four matches;

all in the league competition.

The ball doesn't last for Barça

Barça tries to have long possessions, but fails.

Athletic's pressure is being very effective in these first minutes.
