MADRID: Atletico Madrid set up a Copa del Rey final against Sevilla when they went through 6-3 on aggregate despite conceding two late goals to lose 3-2 at Racing Santander in their semi-final second leg on Thursday.

Atletico thrashed Racing 4-0 in first leg but were rocked in only the second minute when Juan Valera headed into his own net.

Valera made amends

six minutes later. Jurado snuffed out any hopes of an unlikely Racing comeback shortly after halftime when he curled the ball into the bottom corner. Late goals from Racing strikers Xisco and Mohamed Tchite were mere consolations.

Sevilla, the 2007 Cup winners, won last week’s first leg at home to Getafe 2-0 and hung on to clinch a 2-1 aggregate win after losing 1-0 in Madrid on Wednesday.
