00:00But tonight, it's Football Club Barcelona against Atletico Madrid.
00:21Maybe the few people still going up the elevators to get here.
00:252-0 and Atletico did the same. 5-0 at home to Getafe. Atletico.
00:37Juliano Simeone, De Paul, Pablo Barrias, Conor Gallagher and two up front. 425 games. He and
00:45Julian Alvarez are very tight. Remember this, unlike the rest of the Copa del Rey, is home
00:52and away. It's not 90 minutes. Stadium in April. Straight away, Atletico looking to attack and
01:00Szczesny. That's the tip over from Alvarez. Good start from Atletico finding a bit of space there
01:08on the left. Might have been offside but things didn't work out for him particularly well.
01:14Takes another decent delivery and there at the far post is the opener and it's Julian Alvarez.
01:2050 seconds on the clock. Scoring his 20th goal of the season in all competitions.
01:28That 90 million euros they played Manchester City is money even better spent every day.
01:39Simeone looks skywards. Thank you very much.
01:4550 seconds on the clock when Alvarez put that one in and the travelling fans up in the
01:50top right hand corner of Montjuic celebrate. Let's have a look again.
01:56Time to look up. There's no offside there.
02:02And he comes in from deep doesn't he? Great run. Lovely ball from Griezmann.
02:11Dani Almo looking to advance.
02:15And a free kick for Atletico.
02:22Out to Lamine Yamal. Gallagher doubling up on Lamine. Looking for the movement
02:29from Griezmann. Antoine Griezmann can he hold off the challenge? Griezmann!
02:332-0 to Atletico Madrid with five minutes on the clock. And Atletico have already stamped
02:42their authority on this game. Unbelievable start. Barca being penalized
02:50for that high defensive line on this occasion.
02:55And although Szczesny got a hand on it it wasn't enough to keep it out. Antoine Griezmann
03:03scores his 197th goal for Atletico Madrid.
03:07And his 12th goal this season.
03:16No offside there. Holds off Balder really well. Takes it on to a supposedly weaker foot.
03:30Unlucky for the keeper. He got a decent hand on that. Could easily have gone the wrong side.
03:372-0. And all of a sudden Barcelona. There's a lot of steps to get out to
03:44Barca top. At the moment Atletico third just a point behind. Lamine Yamal. That's a great ball
03:51through to Ferran Torres. Torres can he get Barca back into it? That's not a great finish.
03:59Lacked confidence there Ferran Torres. Once again great footwork.
04:05It does come to Pedri who I'm not sure. And once again Lamine looking for that over lap from
04:11Jules Koundé. And here is a chance that is 2-1. And this time it's Pedri. Nicely worked move down
04:18the right. Lamine Yamal to Koundé. Pedri making no mistake. 90 minutes gone. Barcelona right back
04:28into this. And that has woken some of the fans up. Excellent team move from Barca.
04:43They don't really close him down there. No offside. Lovely pass.
04:47Once again Lamine flips that one in. Get the feeling it might not end 2-1 tonight.
05:00And there. Well it's good to be good at predictions isn't it? There is 2-1 and it's
05:05Pau Courbassi. Pops up at the far post. And Barcelona are level. Unbelievable.
05:27Lovely in swinging corner. But that's the sort of goal that Diego Simeone will not be happy to concede.
05:36He just out muscles Barrios there at the far post.
05:43Little bit of an arm on Barrios but
05:50there's been no Vacek. We're back underway and I'll tell you that.
05:55And Barca about 20 yards inside the Atletico half. Koundé gets forward again. That's a
06:02rifled in. It's been a packed season. Hang on a second.
06:07Oh I know. By the corner flag where that wind's blowing. Curls in and that should be another. It
06:15is indeed 3-2 once again. Lack of marking on the far post and Inigo Martínez stole in the man from
06:25Andarroa. And it's 3-2 to Barca. They've turned it around in the first half.
06:36And I wonder when the last time was Atletico Madrid conceded two goals in 45 minutes from a corner.
06:47Look at him curl off. Peel off round the back there Inigo. Nobody goes with him. Watch again.
06:55That's Llorente who's asking for a free kick.
07:06So while you're looking at the replay that some of the Atletico players are complaining.
07:11Juan Musso has come a long way out of his area.
07:15Another decent delivery Inigo Martínez. Koundé, Dani Olmo collects in space.
07:27Well he's not controlling but it falls to Barca. Griezmann and this is what Atletico are looking
07:32for. The burst from deep from Simeone. Under a bit of pressure there Jiménez.
07:38Well it's fallen nicely to Dani Olmo. Ill holding that defensive line right
07:46in the middle of the pitch. And that might be expensive. Griezmann. Galaga goes down and
07:55great to see him get a nice long run without any muscle problems.
08:00It's good defending. Fantastic little bit of control there from the midfielder. And again.
08:08Balder wanted it. Out wide to Lamin Yamal.
08:13Go away and there. 4-2. A moment of absolute magic from Lamin Yamal. Turning.
08:224-2. A moment of absolute magic from Lamin Yamal. Turning. Reynaldo inside out and giving
08:32Lewandowski arguably one of the easiest finishes of his very long career. 4-2 to Barcelona.
08:45Just when it looked as if Atletico were really in with a chance of getting back on level terms.
08:49Lewandowski scores a tap in. But let's be honest.
08:57Up as well.
09:02Sorloff. Kovacic gets it. Once again Lamin.
09:09Looking to link with Rafinha. It's Correa.
09:14Whoa. That will make it interesting for the return leg.
09:19Marcos Llorente. On to the end of Correa's pullback.
09:32And it's four goals to three.
09:38Nicely worked by Atletico down the left.
09:40Once again look at Correa's angled run.
09:45Pulls it back. Nobody in that space.
09:49And we're back underway with Atletico. Having a great chance and Sorloff makes it four all.
09:57Simeone goes absolutely crazy. And I'll tell you what.
10:03I would be giving those pitch invaders a little bit of a talking to right now.
10:08Atletico make it four all in the 93rd minute. And just as he did in December.
10:20Alexander Sorloff scores an injury time goal for Atletico Madrid.
10:27In an absolute...
