61'
There have been real questions asked of Barcelona this season and the direction the club is heading in at the moment. A Copa del Rey win would show some signs of progress. Work to do here.
60'
Barcelona are living on the edge a bit here. This time a left footed strike is lashed wide of Neto's post. Cornella are starting to believe they could actually win this. Growing in stature.
59'
Neto keeps it out! Medina angles a powerful low strike at goal from 25 yards out, but the Barcelona goalkeeper gets down to make the save! That could have easily found the back of the net!
58'
That was close! Good chance for Griezmann to score the opener! Pjanic clipped a freekick pass over the Cornella defence, but the French forward could only shoot over on the full volley!

Presa is shown a yellow card for a late tackle in the centre of the pitch.
56'
Koeman isn’t really using Griezmann in a different way or anything. The Frenchman just seems to have embraced his duties in this Barcelona team and he has found some good form as a result.
55'
One Barcelona player who has been in great form recently is Griezmann. The French forward has had a direct hand in seven goals in his last four appearances for the Catalans in all competitions.
54'
It should be said that Barcelona don't look so comfortable on this plastic pitch. They are struggling to find their passing flow. The ball tends to slow down on these type of surfaces.
53'
Barcelona won the Copa del Rey four times in a row between 2015 and 2018. However, they lost the 2019 final to Valencia and were knocked out in the quarter finals last season.
52'
Pedri has been one of the big success stories of this season for Barcelona. Indeed, the teenage playmaker has become a key part of Koeman’s side. His understanding with Messi is very strong. Not involved tonight.
50'
Araujo looks to have picked up something of a knock, but the Barcelona centre back looks fine to continue. He has become an important player for Koeman this season.
49'
PICTURE: Still no breakthrough

Ramon denies Braithwaite! That should have been a Barcelona goal! Griezmann deflected a pass into the path of Braithwaite, but the Dane shoots straight at the goalkeeper! What a chance!
46'
Koeman will surely want better from his team in this second half. Barcelona missed a penalty kick, but besides that they have struggled to create many scoring opportunities.

HALF TIME: Cornella 0-0 Barcelona. Still waiting for the breakthrough in this Copa del Rey round of 32 tie, but Barca have had a penalty kick saved through Pjanic!

43'
Dorca slides wide! That was a decent opportunity for the home side to find the back of the Barcelona net, but Dorca gets it all wrong and slices high and wide of Neto's goal.

PENALTY KICK SAVED! Wow! What a moment for Ramon! The Cornella goalkeeper goes the right way and makes a solid save to deny Pjanic from the spot! It's still level pegging!
