拉科鲁尼亚 VS 巴塞罗那。巴萨艰难取胜晋级16强。

巴萨在客场2-1苦战利纳雷斯·拉科鲁尼亚，开始了他们的国王杯卫冕之路，晋级16强。巴萨统治了整场比赛，本应将平局置于视线之外，但错过了很多机会，不得不在下半场落后才能赢得胜利并在杯赛中继续前进。先讨论上半场，巴萨在对阵第三师的比赛中接近上半场：完全占优势。 Blaugrana 拥有超过 80% 的控球率，并派出大量身体向前，并创造了至少一次或两次得分的机会，但最后三分之一的糟糕表现和糟糕的决策使他们无法得分。利纳雷斯以 4-4-2 的紧凑阵型坐回，试图缩小空间并在柜台上击中巴萨，他们只创造了一次机会，但这足以给他们一个进球：卡尼塞尔从右翼将一个传中送入禁区，由于 Óscar Mingueza 的失误，Hugo Díaz 发现自己独自在 6 码的禁区内，并在首场比赛中头球破门。巴萨在下半场继续进攻，本应扳平比分，但他们在门前的问题仍在继续，主队距离大冷门还有 45 分钟。巴萨能否在下半场扭转局面？至于下半场，哈维在发挥了重要作用，杰拉德·皮克、弗兰基·德容和奥斯曼·登贝莱都在中场休息后上场，试图引发卷土重来。登贝莱是三人组中最聪明的，他以他的速度和技巧完全接管了比赛，他参与了巴萨在上半场前 15 分钟所做的一切好事。布劳格拉纳继续创造机会，一次又一次地错失机会，但由于登贝莱在底角 25 码处的漂亮冰壶，他们终于找到了网后。仅仅五分钟后，费兰·尤特格拉（Ferran Jutglà）的一次快速反击结束了，巴萨在比赛还剩 20 分钟时以 2-1 领先。利纳雷斯并没有放弃，并因越位而被判入球，不久后击中横梁，比赛进行到最后 10 分钟时仍然在寻找机会。巴萨希望通过良好而聪明的控球来管理比赛，但他们不断犯愚蠢的错误，在中场容易丢球，这给了利纳雷斯进攻的机会。但是主队没能想出一个真正的得分机会，巴萨能够用完时间，终场哨声响起，将冠军送入了16强。巴萨让这比他们应该做的要艰难得多有，并且在这一点上对顶级前锋的需求变得更加明显。至少应该是五六个。相反，它是不必要的紧张。但胜利就是胜利，尤其是在 15 名球员出局的情况下。
