What They're Saying

Villarreal manager Marcelino Garcia Toral (via Inside Spanish Football): "It's a very evenly matched tie. We're both very similar teams. Things are going better for us right now, but you can only evaluate the balance at the end of the season. Both teams have similar profiles of footballers, though. We're hopeful that this time around in the Copa del Rey it's different, and that we make it through to the next round. Previously, we've always done well against La Real in La Liga and badly in the Copa del Rey."

Real Sociedad manager David Moyes (via Inside Futbol): "If it was possible, I would love to go and win the cup. I'll be telling the players that we want to stay in the cup as long as we can. I want up to build momentum in the league and in the cup."
