Bilbao, Sevilla And Mallorca Into Copa Del Rey Quarters

Quique Sanchez Flores: Asier Villalibre scored twice as Athletic Bilbao continued their impressive form to enter the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey with a 2-0 win at home to Alaves on Tuesday night.

The big striker, nicknamed 'the Buffalo', fired Athletic ahead with a thumping left-foot shot in the 28th minute and assured the win with a diving header from Oscar de Marcos' cross on the hour mark, reports Xinhua.

Athletic controlled most of the game but had to thank goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala for two smart saves to deny Alaves striker Samu at the start of the second half, before Villalibre's second goal killed off any hopes for the visitors.
