Surprising co-leader of La Liga with Real Madrid, Girona did not fail in the 32nd final of the Spanish Cup.

Although trailed 2-1 at the break by Orihuela, a resident of the Iberian fourth division, the Catalan club won 2-5 this Thursday, not without a stunning double from Stuani.

Facing lower class formations, Cayon and Sestao – Athletic Bilbao and Celta Vigo were not trapped either, winning respectively 0-3 and 1-2 in hostile lands.

On the other hand, Cádiz was surprised, defeated 2-1 by Arandina, another representative of the Segunda RFEF (Spanish fourth division).
