An epic Copa night awaits in the Sánchez Pizjuán
In order to advance to the semifinals without going through extra time, we must beat Sevilla 0-2.
Atlético de Madrid will face Sevilla FC in the Sánchez Pizjuán in a must-win Copa del Rey quarter-final clash. In order to advance to the semifinals without going through extra time, we must beat Sevilla 0-2.
Last week, our Copa clash in the Wanda Metropolitano ended 1-2 in the Andalusian side's favor, but Atlético de Madrid never give up and the players will give it their all to make the highly anticipated Copa comeback.
We won't be able to count on Diego Costa who suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday's match against Girona, but we have several options in the bench. Fernando Torres with three goals, is our top goalscorer in the Copa, meanwhile Kevin Gameiro and Ángel Correa have been in fine form and scoring lots as well.
Diego Pablo Simeone is confident the lads will give it their all in order to qualify for the next round of the prestigious Spanish cup.
"It’ll be an intense and beautiful match and surely there will be a great atmosphere in Sevilla’s stadium.," he said.
