Copa Del Rey Semifinal

Sevilla vs Athletic Bilbao

Sevilla really have to wait for second leg to ensure the advance for Copa Del Rey Final for this season after winning the first leg at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium in Seville, 2-1.

The match was forced to start fifteen minutes late due to storms in the area and when it did get under way most of the play was in the air due to the waterlogged conditions.

Bilbao have lead to scoreline after the first half goal from their top marksman, Fernando Llorente who really have a good instinct in front of opponent's goal. The giant 6"5' striker scored with an astonishing header after a corner taken by David Lopez.

Sevilla looked blunt in creating chances and only after Duscher had leveled the match with a booming strike from close range after the break, did they look dangerous, but it looked to be to no avail, as Kanouté spurned a great chance to score from the spot with five minutes left.

However, Acosta leave it late a final minute goalscorer to make it 2-1, when a shot from Aldo Duscher deflected and found Acosta then beat Gorka Iraizoz from close range.
