Spain's only remaining representative Málaga made it through to the last eight of the competition after defeating AEK Athens in their second leg match. Joaquín Peiró's side had been held to a scoreless draw in the first leg in Andalucia, and the Greeks were favourites to go through in front of their fanatical crowd in the Nikos Goumis stadium. However the visitors held their nerve to dominate the opening minutes, and they took the lead on the half hour mark when Manu turned the ball into an empty net after keeper Chiotis could only palm away Musampa's cross. With away goals counting double in the event of a tie,

AEK had to score twice to win. However despite intense pressure in the run up to the break, with Lakis shooting just wide after Tsartas set him through, the well disciplined Spanish defence held on. Bajevic brought on Ivic at half time to strengthen his attack, and the Yugoslav striker had a penalty appeal turned down by English referee Robert Styles when Valcarce brought him down. However Musampa almost added to the lead later on when Chiotis stuck out a foot to block his shot, and when substitute Petkov fired an effort over the bar near the end the tie was over. Málaga will play Portugal's Boavista in the quarter finals after they knocked out Hertha Berlin later in the evening.
