Barcelona 6-1 Sevilla: Report, Ratings and Reaction as Blaugrana Bounce Back in Copa del Rey

Barcelona advanced to the semi-finals of the Copa Del Rey for the ninth straight season after they thrashed Sevilla 6-1 in the second leg of their quarter-final tie.

Trailing 2-0 from the first leg, Barcelona put in a performance that merited nothing less than victory thanks to a brace from Philippe Coutinho, as well as goals either side of half-time for Ivan Rakitic and Sergi Roberto, before two late strikes from Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi put the tie to bed.

The hosts got off to the perfect start, taking the lead after just 13 minutes through a Philippe Coutinho penalty.
