Tuesday 20 December 2016 22:59, UK
Atletico Madrid cruised into the last 16 of the Copa del Rey with a 4-1 victory over Guijuelo on Tuesday night that meant a 10-1 win on aggregate.
The third division side were no match for Atletico, who won the first leg 6-0, and raced into a three-goal lead within half an hour at the Vicente Calderon thanks to goals from Nicolas Gaitan, Angel Correa and Juanfran.
Raul Ruiz Matarin was then dismissed in the first half for Guijuelo, before Fernando Torres made it 4-0 right before the break.
There would be some joy, however, for the visitors as they grabbed a 79th minute consolation via Antonio Pino.
Elsewhere, Real Sociedad drew 1-1 at home against Valladolid to progress through with a 4-2 aggregate win, and Villarreal also played out a 1-1 home draw, against Toledo, to win 4-1 overall.
Las Palmas scraped through 4-3 on aggregate after beating Huesca 2-1 on the night, and Cordoba recorded an impressive 4-3 win at Malaga to win 6-3 on aggregate.
