"continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"?

Copa del Rey, quarter finals, second leg

Minute by minute commentary

Follow all the goals from the Copa del Rey as they happen on Soccer-Spain's LoveLaLiga twitter (comments by day in reverse chronological order).

Thursday 30th January:

#CopadelRey: All results: link

Sad day for football, and those in charge at Racing should be ashamed. Players have not been paid in several months, despite empty promises.

#CopadelRey As expected, Racing players lined up for kick-off but then withdrew in protest. Game awarded by default to Real Sociedad 3-0.

Wednesday 29th January:

Tomorrow's match may be off as Racing players (several months without pay) refusing to turn up v Real Sociedad unless board resign...

That's it, Barça 9 - Levante 2 on aggregate! Another trip to the dentist for Caparrós...

...Fàbregas just made it 5-1... and he goes off to be replaced by Afellay...

Barça goalscorers tonight so far, Adriano, Puyol, Alexis, Alexis... Sorry, our mistake...

Tello shot & Puyol header from a corner turned score in favour of Barça at break, and Alexis has just scored two easy goals! 4-1!!!

Third time in 11 days that Levante have taken the lead against Barça...

...seems that Sergi Roberto got the last touch in to his own net. Let's see what the ref decides...

Surprise in the Nou Camp, 0-1 to Levante! Vyntra again, a corner again!!! Only need three more to turn this around!!!

Final whistle, Athletic Bilbao 1 - Atlético Madrid 2!! All-Madrid semi coming up over the next two weeks, a repeat of last season's final!!!

Can Athletic prevent first defeat in new San Mamés stadium though? Five minutes to do so...

..the end of the road for Athletic, min 85, Diego Costa beats the offside trap to make it 1-2!! His first in 2014 sets up all Madrid semi!!!

Athletic fans singing in the rain!!! (Now that's a good idea for a song???).

Goool!!! Min 55, Raúl García sweeps in Cebolla cross!!! 1-1, away goal, and Athletic need to score two to overturn this one!!!

Levante: Javi Jiménez; Nagore, Vyntra, Juanfran, Nikos; El Adoua, Camarasa; Pedro Ríos, Sergi Pinto, Rubén García; Angel.

Barça XI: Pinto; Montoya, Puyol, Bartra, Adriano; Sergi Roberto, Song, Iniesta; Alexis, Fàbregas, Tello. Messi on bench.

Atlético: Courtois; Juanfran, Miranda, Godín, Filipe; Gabi, Koke; C. Rodríguez, Raúl García, Adrián; Diego Costa. Insúa on for Felipe, 13'.

Sorry, forgot! Athletic XI: Herrerín; Iraola, San José, Laporte, Balenziaga; Iturraspe, Mikel Rico; Susaeta, Herrera, Muniain; Aduriz.

Athletic 1 - Atlético 0. Half time, Aduríz has just levelled the tie with header from Balenziaga cross!!! Looking forward to the 2nd half...

Athletic Bilbao will have to beat Atlético Madrid, Real Madrid & possibly Barcelona to win cup this year! RT if you think they can do it! [No replies…]

#CopadelRey: More quarter final second leg cup action tonight, 20:00 Athletic (0) v Atlético (1); 22:00 #Barcelona (4) - #Levante (1).

Tuesday 28th January:

That's it, Real Madrid beat Espanyol 2-0 on aggregate! 8th clean sheet in a row!, 3rd 1-0 vs Espanyol in 16 days. Madrid in to semis!!!

Twelve minutes to go, Víctor Sánchez just got his 3rd red card of the season! No way back now for Espanyol, but we said that last time???

...anyone still awake out there? This is true "catennachio"!

Half time, Real Madrid 1 - Espanyol 0. Visitors need two in 45 mins, but Madrid now seven and a half games without letting even one in!

Interesting to see two brothers, Nacho and Alex Fernández, facing each other in tonight's cup tie in the Bernabeu stadium!!!

Min 07, 1-0 to Real Madrid!!! Jesé!!! Great pass from @XabiAlonso, great control on chest from Jesé!!!

Espanyol line-up: Casilla; Raúl Rodríguez, Sidnei, Moreno, Capdevila; Abraham, Víctor Sánchez; Torje, Alex Fernández, Pizzi; Sergio García.

Madrid line up: Casillas; Arbeloa, Nacho, Ramos, Coentrao; Xabi Alonso, Illarramendi, Di María; Jesé, Isco, Ronaldo. Isco as false "9"!!!

Racing players have issued an ultimatum after several months without pay, "either the board resigns, or we don't play cup tie on Thursday!"

#CopadelRey Cup action tonight with Real Madrid (1) v Espanyol (0) first match up in the Bernabeu. Winners to play Atlético or Athletic...
