Barca Survive Albacete Test: Rashford Assist & Yamal Magic in 2-1 Win

Barcelona are through to the Copa del Rey 2026 semi-finals, but they had to suffer for it! Watch the full highlights of a tense 2-1 victory over giant-killers Albacete at the Estadio Carlos Belmonte. Lamine Yamal [39'] opened the scoring with a curling finish after a clever pass from Frenkie de Jong. The lead was doubled shortly after the break when captain Ronald Araujo [56'] powered home a header from a Marcus Rashford corner. However, Albacete—who knocked out Real Madrid in the previous round—refused to give up. Javi Moreno [86'] pulled one back late on to set up a grandstand finish. The hosts almost equalized in stoppage time, but a heroic goal-line clearance from young defender Gerard Martin [90'+] saved Hansi Flick’s side from extra time
