SeeB Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Atletico MadridvsFC Barcelona 8:00pm WET Feb 7, 2017Barcelona Karl Matchett Barcelona take a 2-1 lead into the second leg of their Copa Del Rey semi-final with Atletico Madrid. Goals from Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi cancelled out an effort from Antoine Griezmann to hand Barca the edge heading into the second leg at the Camp Nou. With a place in the final at stake against either Alaves or Celta Vigo, who are set to meet on Wednesday, Luis Enrique will be hopeful his charges can beat off the threat of Diego Simeone’s Atletico. Barcelona 1-1 Atletico Madrid (Agg 3-2) (FT) Luis Suarez 42', Kevin Gameiro 82'. Sergi Roberto (FCB) sent-off 57', Yannick Carrasco (ATM) sent-off 69', Luis Suarez (FCB) sent-off 90'.
