Barcelona dumped out of Copa del Rey as Real Madrid make the area-finals

Barcelona's season were given from terrible to worse as they were knocked out of the Copa del Rey on Thursday night time. 

The Catalan club are having a season to neglect, and it were given worse as they misplaced 3-2 away at Athletic Bilbao to bow out. 

Iker Muniain gave Athletic the lead early on as he beautifully curled the ball past Marc-Andre ter Stegen into the pinnacle corner.

Ferran Torres then equalised for Xavi Hernandez's group with his first goal in a Barcelona shirt, locating the returned of the net from the edge of the container.&#one hundred sixty;

The match seemed to be headed for a 1-1 draw until Inigo Martinez gave Athletic the lead with four minutes to move, and for a moment it changed into sufficient to see them through.

Things but changed as Pedri scored a exceptional stoppage-time equaliser to ship the fit into more time.

Muniain then scored the winner from the penalty spot in extra time after the video assistant referee spotted a handball from Jordi Alba in the region.

In every other fit, Real Madrid sailed through to the quarters after a hard-fought 2-1 more-time win over Elche.&#one hundred sixty;
