Back on the pitch, Andrés Palop embarked upon another of his one-man missions to win Sevilla the cup as he thwarted a whole host of Getafe chances, the most notable of which was a prodigious one-handed stop from a Boateng drive with only seconds remaining. Roberto Soldado did manage to get the better of the Sevilla keeper on 51 minutes with another classy finish in what is turning out to be an excellent season for the ex Real Madrid hotshot, but they couldnt add the vital second goal. So Sevilla await the winner of tomorrows semi-final between Racing Santander and Atlético Madrid, although with the Madrileños taking a 4-0 lead up north to Cantabria, Sergio Canales and company will have to pull something pretty special out of the bag for it not to be an all red and white final.
