Real Oviedo faced their first Copa del Rey knockout round this Tuesday. The Asturian team traveled to Galicia to take on Ourense CF, a Primera RFEF team, in a match where Luis Carri贸n opted for a lineup marked by rotations, consisting of: Moldovan, Rahim, Dani Calvo, Baily, Lucas, Sibo, Reina, Ilic, Hassan, Brekalo, and For茅s.
The match began with alternating dominance and few clear chances. Oviedo managed to take the lead in the first quarter of an hour, thanks to a penalty converted by Brekalo. With the 0-1 scoreline, the Carbay贸n team went into halftime with the advantage, although the home side had several dangerous opportunities to equalize.
In the second half, Ourense stepped up and managed to equalize the match with a fine goal from Jer铆n. Shortly after, Ilic put Oviedo back in the lead with the 1-2. However, in the last minute of the game, a lateral free kick resulted in the home team's equalizer (2-2), sending the match into extra time. During the second half, Carri贸n made substitutions, bringing on Agud铆n, Colombatto, Vi帽as, Javi L贸pez, and Brandon.
In extra time, the Galician side dominated from start to finish and sealed the knockout round with two goals, one in each half. A final score of 4-2 and a penalty saved by Moldovan in the last play of the match marked the end of Real Oviedo's Copa del Rey journey on an afternoon to forget.
