RC Celta paid for the suffering at the Estadi Nacional of FC Andorra. It was expected to be a complicated tie due to the artificial pitch, but the sky blues also came up against a tough opponent who believed until the last breath.
José Fontán opened the scoring thirteen minutes after the opening whistle with his second goal in the cup competition. Andorra did not give up and before the break they equalized with a goal signed by Vilanova, son of the legendary former RC Celta and FC Barcelona player. The goal was not without controversy. The Vigo players claimed that the ball had not entered the goal completely and the television replay did not clarify the play.
At the beginning of the second half, Coudet’s team made merits to recover the advantage on the scoreboard, but the local team resisted and ended up taking the match to an extra time that seemed to put the Olivian team against the ropes. When everything seemed to go to penalties, Santi Mina appeared to put the final 1-2 on the scoreboard and ensure the passage of RC Celta to the next stage of the Copa Del Rey.
