But it took until shortly before the end to get the important second goal. Only in the fourth minute of injury time was veteran Gerard Piqué in place. Shortly before, the guest player Fernando had to leave the field after a yellow-red card. Barcelona took advantage of the majority from the beginning at the start of extra time, when Martin Braithwaite, who was substituted in the 89th minute, made the decision 3-0.
The second finalists will be determined this Thursday by UD Levante and Athletic Bilbao, who drew 1-1 in the first leg.
