The 2018 Copa del Rey final was an Association football match played on 21 April 2018 to decide the winner of the 2017?18 Copa del Rey , the 116th edition of Spain's primary football cup (including two seasons where two rival editions were played).

The match was between Sevilla and Barcelona at the Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid .

Barcelona won the final 5?0 for their 4th consecutive and 30th overall Copa del Rey title.

Background [ edit ]

Barcelona were competing in their 40th Copa del Rey final, extending the record of 39 which they previously shared with Real Madrid , having won 29 titles prior, a competition record. They were the reigning champions, having defeated Deportivo Alaves 3?1 in the earlier 2017 final at the Vicente Calderon in Madrid . This was their fifth consecutive final, a feat never accomplished before, and were seeking a fourth consecutive title, a record shared by Real Madrid (1905, 1906, 1907, 1908) and Athletic Bilbao (1930, 1931, 1932, 1933).

Sevilla were competing in their ninth Copa del Rey final, having won a total of five titles prior ( 1935 , 1939 , 1948 , 2007 and 2010 ).

The pairing was a rematch from the 2016 final , where Barcelona won 2?0 after extra time.
