Barcelona booked their place in the final of the Spanish King's Cup after beating Atletico Madrid 1-0 away in the second leg of their semi-final.
After two matches, the Catalan giants won 5-4 on aggregate after two matches. In the first leg, Barcelona and Atletico drew 4-4 dramatically at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
Going straight to the final, Coach Hansi Flick's team will face rivals Real Madrid to compete for the championship.
Previously, the Royal team also won 5-4 on aggregate against Real Sociedad - winning 1-0 in the first leg and drawing 4-4 in the second leg.
In the encounter at Civitas Metropolitano in the early morning of April 3, the match was tense right after the opening whistle when both teams entered the match with great determination to win.
Barcelona approached the match with their familiar ball possession style to put pressure on the opponent's field before scoring the opening goal.
In the 27th minute, Yamal made a classy pass that tore through Atletico's defense, creating conditions for Torres to run down and gently finish past goalkeeper Musso.
After Torres' goal, Barcelona continued to control the game, making Atletico Madrid unable to have a single shot on target in the first half.
In the second half, Atletico played better and had a chance to equalize, but Sorloth unfortunately missed the chance when facing goalkeeper Szczesny in the 62nd minute.
In the 69th minute, the Norwegian striker put the ball into the net but the goal was disallowed due to offside.
In the rest of the match, Atletico tried hard but could not score, thereby sadly watching their opponent win the right to enter the final of the King's Cup.
According to the schedule, the King's Cup final between Barcelona and Real Madrid will take place at Olímpico de Sevilla on April 26./.
