The end of Real Sociedad's woes leaves the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey with Mallorca all set
It's all to play for in the Copa del Rey semi-final between Mallorca and Real Sociedade, with the first leg between the two teams in Son Moix ending goalless after a cagey affair in the Balearic Islands.
Real Sociedade certainly had more of the ball in the first half, although they failed to carve out any clear-cut opportunities. Mallorca still failed to make a dent in the opening 45, as they tried to sit and frustrate the visitors.
The second period saw more chances created, and especially for La Real, who really should have scored at least one of their chances. Umar Sadiq will curse his poor finish, as he missed two golden opportunities to set up a first leg for Imanol Alguacil's team.
😱 UYYYYYYYY! (Volume 2)
