Sevilla have their ticket for the Copa del Rey final. Montella's side beat Leganes 2-0 and will play against either Barcelona or Valencia in next month's showpiece. Correa and Vazquez got the goals, one in each half. 

The early stages of the game were electric, worthy of the occasion. Leganes came out strongly in an attempt to match their win against Real Madrid in the last round. But Sevilla grew into the game and due to their better quality broke the deadlock. 

Muriel, a real danger in the first half, snuck into the Leganes area, with Siovasafraid to put a challenge in for fear of giving away a penalty. After his shot rebounded, Correa was on hand to fire home. 

From then on Sevilla, took control of the game. Leganes did not give up but they never looked like they could turn things around having drawn the first leg 1-1. Banega and Muriel almost combined to double the home side's lead before the break. 

 

In the second half, Leganés hardly even made it to the Sevilla box. Montella's side were comfortable. And 'Mudo' Vazquez, one of the best players on the pitch, rounded things off with the second goal. Sevilla are in the Copa del Rey final.
