Cornellà-Atleti and Linares-Sevilla in the 2nd round of the Cup

The Copa del Rey continues to take shape and speed. In the absence of the children of San Ildefonso singing the Christmas lottery on December 22, Cornellà and Linares have won the Gordo del Fútbol by having to face Atlético and Sevilla in the second round of the Cup, respectively. Nor is the prize that Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Athletic and Real Sociedad have, as participants in the Spanish Super Cup, who go directly to the sixteenth without playing. This second round of the Copa del Rey will take place on January 5, 6 and 7, 2021.

All the First clubs have passed to the second round getting off the KO tournament to the most modest. There is no longer any club from Regional Preference and Third Division. Yes, there were Segunda B clubs that challenged and defeated LaLiga SmartBank teams. Those few rebels, who are Portugalete, Córdoba, Las Rozas, Pontevedra and Amorebieta, they will have to face in this new tie to Levante, Getafe, Eibar, Cádiz and Sporting, respectively.

Given the shortage of clubs from non-professional football, the draw has resulted in several clashes between teams from the same division, LaLiga SmartBank: Alcorcón-Zaragoza, Castellón-Tenerife, Fuenlabrada-Mallorca, Málaga-Oviedo and Girona-Lugo. Things are getting serious.

As it happened in the first round, the matches will continue to be a single match and will be played in the stadium of the lower category club, as long as said facilities meet the requirements of the RFEF regulation. In the case of crosses between Second Division clubs, the team whose ball was drawn first will act as host. For now, there will be no VAR either.
