0-2: Comeback!

Espanyol qualify for quarters after turning the tie thanks to the goals of Gerard and Baptistao

Perfect. Espanyol signed a great match against Levante to achieve qualification for the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey. The team managed by Quique Sánchez Flores was able to overcome the tie thanks to the goals of Baptistao and Gerard and a great collective game. The blue and whites played with maturity and intelligence to overcome a rival that only finished once between the three clubs. Bravo, team!

Espanyol played with a tremendous maturity the second part: accelerated the game when necessary, put pause to reduce the local momentum and knew how to manage their income perfectly in a few final minutes that, unlike other games, were consumed without excessive suffering for the sake of the hearts of the blue and white fans.
