The most exciting game will probably be Atlético de Madrid v FCBarcelona. We'll see how the team from Madrid faces the game after a 6-1 defeat last time they played against Barcelona.
so after Wednesday we'll probably end up facing Betis.....then on to Valencia....then Sevilla for the finals...and we'll be champions of the Copa Del Rey
