Real Mallorca got off to a dream start against Almeria when Alhassane Keita fired them in front after just nine minutes, but Almeria equalised seconds later through Juan Manuel Ortiz.

Almeria Esteban Suarez saved a penalty before strikes from Cleber Santana (44) and Fernando Varela (56) put Mallorca in pole position to reach the quarter finals.

Fernando Llorente's last-gasp goal earned Athletic Bilbao a dramatic 1-1 draw with Osasuna in Pamplona.
