Copa Dey Rey: Athletic Bilbao Knocks Barcelona Out To Reach Final

Barcelona came crumbling down with a stoppage-time header from Busquet for an own goal that handed a 1-0 victory to Athletic Bilbao for a place in the final against Real Sociedad.

Real Madrid were eliminated in the semi-final after losing 4-3 to Real Sociedad with Alexander Isak scoring twice to give the side a comfortable 3-0 lead en route the victory.

Inaki William had first scored in the first half but was caught in an offside position. Fortunately for Bilbao he was contested with Sergio Busquets in the box for a header when the Barca defender headed the ball past Marc-Andre ter Stegen in 90th+3 minutes.

Lionel Messi who confronted the club sporting director eric Abigal over his comments about the team's commitment under the previous manager wasted a good late scoring chance but slammed the shot into goalkeeper Unai Simon's legs.

Barca's disappointing loss ended their quest for the first title of the season and are in the second place behind Real Madrid in the La Liga table.
