Juan Antonio Serrano: FC Barcelona reached the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey on Thursday night, fighting back to wear down RFEF I (third tier) Unionistas de Salamanca 3-1.

Xavi Hernandez's side had to come back from behind against the underdogs, before Ferran Torres, Jules Kounde and Alejandre Balde turned the game around against a rival that gave everything their legs could give.

After seconds into the game, Unionistas had the first chance as Jorge Rastrajo carved open the Barca defense to set up Mario Losada, who fired wide with only Inaki Pena to beat, reports Xinhua.
