FC Barcelona - 3, Villareal - 1 | Barca in Pole position to make to the Copa del Rey Final | FC Barcelona Videos

FC Barcelona took a huge step to yet another Copa del Rey final with a very well fought 3-1 victory against Villareal. The Yellow submarine who has been in some sensational form recently found themselves at the end of an onslaught from Barca at the Camp Nou. To their credit their tactics was completely different from the team which played against us recently. The idea was to get away from Camp Nou with minimum damage. But Barca boys had completely different plans. Lionel Messi opened the scoring from a delightful Saurez assist, followed by Iniesta and Pique. The only goal for Villareal came from a huge mistake from Barca goal keeper Ter Stegan. To be fair, it is hard to criticize him. He gets very less playing time. May be Enrique needs to immediately decide how he is going to give more playing time to him. Warming up on the bench for most of the time will not help him nor us, especially in Champions League.

Barca close in on Real Madrid with clinical win against Athletic | Barca - 5, Athletic - 2 Highlights | FC Barcelona Videos

Luis Enrique and his boys were not going to let it happen once again. The last time they saw the League leaders Real Madrid drop points, they returned the favour by losing their match also. Luis Enrique had to receive a fair share of criticism for the strategy employed in that match against Celta at the Camp Nou. But everyone knew that he wasn't going to take any chance this time around. The result, a convincing 5-2 victory against Athletic Bilbao at one of the most difficult stadium in La Liga, especially for Barca. A visit to San Mames does not make Barca fans comfortable, actually it throws them around emotionally. This time around there was no such thing. The team was clinical from the start. When Athletic Bilbao started to make a match of the game, the team responded immediately shutting them down and retaining a bigger lead. With this victory Barca has closed down the lead on top to just one point. Real Madrid may still be on top of the league, but Barca very much have their destiny in their own hands.

FC Barcelona Secures Copa del Rey Semi Final Spot | Barca - 3, Atletico - 2 Highlights

FC Barcelona secured their place in the Semi-Final of the Copa Del Rey with a sensational 3-2 victory against Atletico Madrid. Barca had to come from behind twice in a sensational first half which saw five goals beings scored at rather frightening pace. Neymar was Barca's star performer scoring twice and the other goal coming from an own goal from Miranda. The match was a fiery affair not only interms of football but also in terms of general conduct. At times the conduct of Simeone's boys were really bad with Turan even finding time to throw his boot at the linesman. But the disgraceful fact was that the referee didn't sent him off for such a big offense. What kind of signal is the RFEF trying to send to the players. This is really bad by the referees and what makes it worse is that it follows the relatively kind two match suspension handed over to Ronaldo for punching, kick and slapping the opponent. The referees needs to get their acts together otherwise considering the history of the clubs in Spain and it's own history, it will soon end up with widespread riots on the streets.

Messi Penalty Gives Barca Edge over Atletico | FC Barcelona -1, Atletico - 0 Copa del Rey Highlights

FC Barcelona took a firm step towards Copa Del Rey Semi-Final when they beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 at home. The victory came via a Messi penalty (technically can't be called a penalty goal as his penalty was blocked and he scored from the rebound). The penalty was awarded when Busquets was brought down in the box following a Messi free kick; some could argue that the penalty was a bit soft. But there is no denial that there was contact. The match was a real tight one unlike the recent La Liga encounter between these two teams. Barca should be happy with the way they kept Atletico attack safely isolated. The chances were at premium and the best one fell once again to Saurez who as we seen many time in recent past blasted over.
