Barcelona are into the finals of the Copa Del Rey after beating Sevilla 3-0 in extra-time at the Camp Nou to produce a remarkable comeback.
Ousmane Dembele, Gerard Pique and Martin Braithwaite were all on target for the Catalans as their 2-0 deficit from the first leg was wiped out.
Dembele broke the deadlock in just 12 minutes, giving the hosts a headstart, but Julen Lopetegui's side held firm in the match.
Lucas Ocampos then had the chance to pull one back for the visitors from the spot in the 74th minute and put the contest to bed, but saw his penalty attempt saved by Marc-Andre ter Stegan.

That gave Barcelona some much-needed impetus and, following some lengthy spells of sustained pressure, Gerard Pique headed in their second goal in the fourth-minute of stoppage time just after Fernando's sending off.
The game headed into extra-time and substitute Martin Braithwaite completed the turnaround in the 95th-minute, with Luuk de Jong also seeing red for the visitors later.
Barcelona are now in their seventh League Cup final of the last eight years and will face either Levante or Athletic Bilbao in April's showpiece clash. Here are the hits and flops from the Camp Nou thriller:
Hit: Gerard Pique (Barcelona)
Too often the scapegoat during last year's disastrous season for Barcelona, Gerard Pique kept fighting to prove himself and retain his position in the side.
Even though the veteran Spaniard had offered no great shakes so far this season, he continued to show his worth to Ronald Koeman, and tonight, his persistence paid off.
Like he's so often done in his prime, Pique popped up with a late header which kept the Catalans in the game, thumping the ball home from close range in the fourth minute of stoppage time to bring his side level on aggregate.
That was Pique's first goal of the season and he couldn't have timed it any better as it set Barcelona on their way to a historic victory.
Flop: Lucas Ocampos (Sevilla)
He had one job to do and Ocampos managed to screw that up too.
Silent for most of the match, the Argentinian targetman had the opportunity to put the contest to bed from a penalty that he won himself.
At the time, the game was still only 1-0 in favor of the hosts and Ocampos dispatching the penalty would've all but ended Barca's night.
However, the 26-year old stood up and smashed a limp effort which was easily saved by ter Stegan, keeping the tie in the balance and letting Barca heave a huge sigh of relief.
Barcelona eventually managed to turn the tie around, something which wouldn't have been possible had Ocampos just taken his chance. This will surely haunt the player for the next few days.
Hit: Marc-Andre ter Stegen (Barcelona)
All the goalscorers of tonight will surely take credit but it was Marc-Andre ter Stegan who kept Barcelona in the contest when the game was finely poised, denying Lucas Ocampos from the spot.
Sure, the Argentinian was at fault for an awful penalty kick, but full marks for the German custodian too for reading his movements well and then diving the right way to make a crucial save.
That moment was the catalyst for tonight's comeback as ter Stegan's save spurred the hosts on and kept his team in the match when the scoreline was still only 1-0 to Barcelona.
Flop: Luuk de Jong (Sevilla)
Sevilla's vibrant attack, which put Barcelona to the sword in the first leg, went completely AWOL here, failing to test the hosts altogether, let alone score another goal at the Camp Nou.
Lucas Ocampos wasted the penalty and will be the culprit in the eyes of the Sevilla fans, but Luuk de Jong was no better, offering precious little in the attack and almost never testing the Catalans.
The Dutchman, who scored on his last visit to the ground, was a pale shadow of the man who took the Catalans to the cleaners that day, cutting an isolated figure upfront for most of the match.
His off-the-ball work left a lot to be desired too, never dropping back to help the Sevillistas or press the players in blue into giving away possession.
If that wasn't enough, de Jong was sent off in the 103rd minute for remonstrating with the referee, long after he'd already been subbed off!
Hit: Ousmane Dembele (Barcelona)
Are we really witnessing the renaissance of Ousmane Dembele? The Frenchman produced another stellar performance tonight and even precipitated the comeback with a peach of a strike in the 12th minute.
On receiving the ball on the edge of the box, Dembele took a few steps and lashed an unstoppable effort into the top corner, leaving Sevilla goalkeeper Tomáš Vaclík grounded.
Having also struck at the weekend against the Andalusians, this was the first time the 23-year old has struck in consecutive games for Barcelona this season.
Confident, dangerous and eager, Dembele was a thorn in Sevilla's side tonight, even creating a few chances later on in the match.
