MALLORCA TODAY - (Copa del Rey) Real Mallorca 6 (6) : Real Sociedad 1 (3)

The second leg of the cup tie with Mallorca two-nil down. Mallorca putting out a stronger team than on the road in the first leg and including, for the first time, the great hope, the Belgian striker Marvin Ogunjimi, started brightly, but Sociedad went ahead through an Ifrán header after quarter of an hour. And then ... Castro twice, Hemed and Nunes all within the space of six minutes turned what looked like certain departure for Mallorca into near certainty to progress, as Mallorca took charge of the game. Alfaro with a header made it five soon into the second period, Hemed added another on the quarter hour and the result was certain. Mallorca through to the quarter-finals and for a team that can't score, a remarkable outcome.
