E26: Copa del Rey final preview as Barça seek revenge on Athletic
Episode description
Sam, Rik and Toni preview this weekend's Copa del Rey final, which pits the competition's two most successful teams against each other in Barcelona and Athletic Club. Barça have won the Copa 30 times, while Athletic have been successful on 23 occasions, albeit not since 1984... when they beat Diego Maradona's Barça 1-0. This year's final will be played on Saturday in Seville, although there will be no fans due to the continued coronavirus restrictions in place across Spain.
