The Mirands stretch a little more their good reputation in the Copa del Rey entering this Thursday by surprise in the draw for the quarterfinals. On Friday, meet a rival of Primera, the third one he faces after eliminating Celta and Sevilla, whom he scores in Anduva, his stadium. Sending from the beginning, the Second Division team, the only one left in the tournament, took one of the favorites in the competition and third place in the League, just behind Barcelona and Real Madrid. (3-1: Narration and statistics)

One of the big two may fall in luck to the Mirands in the draw that takes place at 1 pm. The quarters will be played next week yet in a single match. In the case of the burgals team, being of lower category, knows that play safe at home.

The Mirands began the game very seriously, squeezing the exit of the ball from Sevilla and gave the bell very soon with an early goal from Matheus that aroused the madness in Anduva. The Brazilian was ahead of the rojillo team after winning the ball with the body and staying only to Vaclik who could not stop the right to the second suit of the forward mirands. Mirands did not stop, soon again doing damage to Sevilla. Matheus scored the second after a mistake by Ever Banega and a little help from Gudelj, who touched the ball with his back to mislead his goalkeeper. Julen Lopetegui made three changes at the break, but he didn't change the ethnicity.

The Second team passed over the First team. Nor the failure of a penalty that the VAR detected (Diego Carlos nudge) made Mirands nervous in the final stretch, with a Sevilla already looking for the desperate goal. The local goal for almost all Andalusians, until Alvaro Rey finished the game when his people suffer most. A clearing after a crner from Sevilla, the Sevillian was the fastest and despite the fact that Vaclik for the first attempt to the second mark the third, which gave the final pass to the quarterfinals at the Mirands. His roof in the Cup is in 2012, when he made history reaching the semifinals being a Second B club.
