FC Barcelona has drawn 1 - 1 away against Real Sociedad tonight in the 2º leg semi-final match of the Spanish Cup - Copa del Rey. This results gives Barça a 3 - 1 overall aggregate & puts them into the Kings Cup Final were they will meet Real Madrid.
Bit of an anti-climax in my opinion as there was a pre-match "vibe" in the air that perhaps Real Sociedad could pull off a surprise. Instead they found in from of them an FC Bareclona XI that palyed one of their best games this season, especially the first half were they "dazzled" Real Sociedad with dominating touch Football. Lionel Messi decided to put up his "party piece" attacking the forwards head-on to find a space & bang his left foot for a goal curler in the 27th min. Things were basically sealed at this point.
Surprisingly the home team played its best Football with 15 minutes left. A bit too late to attempt a turnaround but they made happy their home fans showing that they too are proud to have gotten to the semis. Real Sociedad French forward Antoine Griezmann scored the equalizer in the 86th min & at least gave the scoreline a "sweet taste".
Spanish Football will soon have another "clasico" - Real Madrid / FC Barcelona - coming soon. Who will win the Copa de Rey ?
