It was always going to be a difficult game against an opponent playing with no fear whatsoever, and on an artificial pitch that Barca wouldn’t be used to playing on.
Cornella should always have been paid the respect they deserve after knocking out Atletico Madrid in the last round, and with Real Madrid incredibly, and quite laughably bombing against Alcoyano and their goalkeeper of 40+ years, the Copa del Rey had already opened up for the Catalans before the match.
That Barca were unable to break down their hosts for long periods, despite the mitigating circumstances, says an awful lot about the lack of motivation on the night.
