Thursday, 10th January:

Betis 1 - Las Palmas 0. Brave fight by Canary Islanders, but Betis through to play Atlético. What odds on a Betis - Sevilla semi-final?

Game over in Nou Camp, 7-0 on aggregate! Barça to meet Málaga, who they play in the league this weekend!

Betis 1 - Las Palmas 0 (Rubén Castro 85'). Castro seems to have wrapped things up, but if Las Palmas score it goes to extra time...

Barça 5 - Córdoba 0 (Alexis 85'). Striker fell over with open goal, then a minute later he scored after keeper saved Tello shot!

Barça 4 - Córdoba 0 (Alexis 55'). He needed that! Chilean forward heads in Thiago corner to get his first goal since the cows came home!

Half time, Betis 0 - Las Palmas 0. At the moment Betis ahead on away goal, but game is in the balance...

Barça 3 - Córdoba 0. Villa again, this time with a low shot in off the far post after pass back from Sergi Roberto! 5-0 on aggregate!

Sorry, that was Alex Song who put him through... and in mid-tweet Villa cuts in from the left by-line and finds a gap past Saizar, 2-0!

Barça 1 - Córdoba 0 (Thiago 17'). Sergi Roberto puts Thiago away to open the scoring. Won't be extra time then!

Barcelona v Córdoba also kicking off soon. Messi on bench, front line of Villa - Cesc - Alexis. First leg Córdoba 0 - Messi 2!

Getafe 0 - Atlético 0. Dull game, but Atleti through to meet winner of Betis v Las Palmas, up next (1-1 first leg).

Sergio Ramos given a 5 match ban for insulting referee after getting sent off for second bookable offence last night!

First tie on Thursday kicked off, Getafe v Atlético - 1st leg 3-0 to Atleti. 30 mins gone, Getafe down to 10 as Rafa RC for foul on Falcao!

Copa: Some big names missing from Barça squad v Cordoba tonight, but Messi to play and Villa may also make starting eleven.


Wednesday, 9th January:

Zaragoza 2 - Levante 0 (Montañés 60'). Maños through 3-0 on aggregate, and will meet Sevilla in quarter finals!

Real Madrid 4 - Celta 0 (Ronaldo 87', Khedira 88'). Ronaldo completes hat-trick to take Madrid through to quarter final against Valencia!

Zaragoza 1 - Levante 0 (Zuculini 23'). Zuculini (sounds like a vegetable?) scores after Navas saved from Aranda. Maños two up in the tie!

Real Madrid 2 - Celta 0. (Ronaldo 24'). CR7 again! Celta paying for him not winning the Golden Ball once again...

Real Madrid 1 - Celta 0 (Ronaldo 2'). What a start! Madrid already ahead on away goal rule, but 88 mins still to go! Expand 9 Jan SOCCER-SPAIN ?@LoveLaLiga

Next up, Real Madrid (1) v Celta (2), and Zaragoza (1) v Levante (0). Winners of 1st v Valencia in 1/4 final, winners of 2nd v Sevilla.

Sevilla 1 - Mallorca 2 (Brandon 51', Alfaro 55'). Brave fight back by Mallorca to win on night, but they were never going to overturn 5-0.

Sevilla 1 - Mallorca 0 (Manu 21'). If it wasn't over before, it is now! Mallorca need six to win!

Sevilla - Mallorca kicking off now. With Andalusians winning first leg 0-5, both teams have lined up full of reserve players.

Celta fans may see 17 year old promise Mina tonight if he debuts v Madrid. His stats are fantastic but is the Bernabeu the place to debut?


Tuesday, 8th January:

OK, so scenario in the cup is top half of 1/4 finals sees all 4 Champions League teams meeting each other! Atlético favourites in other 1/2.

Valencia 2 - Osasuna 1. Soldado wraps things up in injury time against old side! Ches to meet the winners of Real Madrid v Celta!

Valencia 1 - Osasuna 1 (Tino Costa 33' / Llorente 36'). Tino gets 1st with free kick, but Llorente levels it. Valencia won 1st leg 0-2.

Málaga 4 - Eibar 1 (Buonanotte 92'). Final whistle goes. Flattering win, with 4 goals in last 15 mins. Next up Valencia v Osasuna!

Málaga 3 - Eibar 1 (Portillo 83'). That's probably it, Portillo heads in Monreal cross, and Eibar down to 10 men. Barça v Málaga next week?

Málaga 2 - Eibar 1 (Seba 76'). That could be it, but an away goal from Eibar will turn things around! Winners will probably meet Barça.

Málaga 1 - Eibar 1 (Buonanotte 75'). Málaga have equalised, and if no change in next 15 mins we will have extra time!

Cup tonight, and already a possible surprise - half time in Rosaleda, Málaga 0 - Eibar 1 (Arroyo 12')! Right now 2B side are ahead!!!
