During the day on Wednesday, Barcelona, king of the competition, suffered a great deal against Granada, which in the 88th minute was classified with a 2-0 after goals from Kenedy and Soldado. However, Barça managed to force the extension (2-2 thanks to goals from Griezmann and Alba) and in that period sealed their pass for the next round. Griezmann scored 2-3 although Granada drew 3-3 through a penalty from Fede Vico. And already in the second half of the extension, De Jong and Alba gave the pass to the Barcelona team.
