Final, Copa del Rey

Espanyol 4 - Zaragoza 1

Espanyol won the Copa del Rey for the fourth time in their history after beating Zaragoza 4-1 in Real Madrid's Santiago Bernabeu stadium. Tamudo opened the scoring for the Barcelona based side in only the second minute after César could only palm away a free kick from De la Peña, and although Ewerthon equalised from a set piece free kick on the half hour mark, Luis García restored the lead just five minutes later when he headed home Tamudo's cross. Substitute Corominas got a third twenty minutes from the end, and after Zaragoza keeper César was sent off for a second bookable offence, Luis García wrapped things up near the end. (12.04.06)
