The Cup, turning point in the granota goal from Keylor

Orriols' goal has had a special connection with the Copa del Rey. Since the irruption of Keylor Navas, who made his Copa debut and had to work patiently to fight for the position against veteran Gustavo Munúa, with practically two seasons in his shadow, great goalkeepers have had their letter of introduction and their confirmation in the elite in the tournament of the K.O.

From Aitor Fernández, who took ownership of an Oier Olázabal who was touching with his fingers a possible call from Luis Enrique, or Dani Cárdenas himself, which, with his saves, has contributed, and in what way, to the team enjoying a historic semi-final against Athletic.

The same Oier made his debut in the Cup to take the place of a Raúl Fernández, who had been the Zamora of Second in the year of promotion. And even Raúl lived his first meeting as a granota in the cupbearer trophy, since Álex Remiro, current Real Sociedad goalkeeper, who ended up returning that year to Athletic in January, started at eleven.

Looking back the Copa del Rey has been the perfect setting to show the talent of the Levantine goalkeeper. The last exponent, Cárdenas, trained for seven years in Buñol and firm commitment of Paco López, it has been the great triumph.
