Barcelona Reach Copa del Rey Semis
Dembele's Goal Downs Real Sociedad
Sociedad's Away Woes Continue
Barcelona have reached the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Real Sociedad at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night.
Ousmane Dembele scored the only goal of the game in the 52nd minute, capitalizing on a mistake from Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro.
The win was Barcelona's first over Sociedad in the Copa del Rey since 2017, and it extended their unbeaten run in the competition to 10 matches.
Sociedad, who had won their previous three matches in all competitions, were reduced to 10 men in the 73rd minute when Brais Mendez was sent off for a second bookable offense.
Despite the numerical advantage, Barcelona were unable to add to their lead, and they will now face either Sevilla or Osasuna in the semi-finals.
