 Atletico Madrid played Levante, a second division team, in a hostile environment.

After a scoreless first half, Atletico Madrid took the lead in the 54th minute when Marcos Jolente turned in a through ball from Angel Correa and Alvaro Morata scored the final goal. In the 90+1 minute, M. Jolente scored a one-on-one from a through pass by Nahuel Molina to win the game. With Joan Felix out, M. Jolente’s goal and assist were enough to secure the first win in three official matches.

 

The defending champions, Betis, took the lead in the 62nd minute, but seemed to have escaped with an equalizer in the 90+1 minute to send the game into extra time. In the 103rd minute, Yusuf Sabaly scored the winner after a direct pass from Betis. Osasuna, however, was able to get back into the game with a goal from Rubén García in the 106th minute. In the penalty shootout, Giedo Rodriguez slipped and missed as Betis looked to have no chance. The penalty kick decided the game, and Osasuna advanced to the quarterfinals.

 

Valencia, who had lost in the final of the previous tournament, had a goal rush against Sporting Gijon (second division) in a hostile environment. Edinson Cavani scored the first goal in the 11th minute, and Justin Kleifert added another in the 39th minute. Cavani scored his second goal of the day in the 39th minute, and added another in the second half for a 4-0 win.

 

Athletic Bilbao advanced to the quarterfinals with a 27th-minute goal from Oscar de Marcos.
