Barça 6-4 Movistar Inter: Comeback win for a place in the final

The blaugranes come from 3-1 down to make it to Sunday's final in Jaén

Into the final of the Spanish Cup go Barça after an epic 6-4 victory over Movistar Inter in the semi finals. The blaugranes came back from 3-1 down to book a place in the final on Sunday in Jaén against the winners of the other semi final between ElPozo and Valdepeñas. 

Jesús Velasco's team did not get off to a good start with Inter 2-0 up after just five minutes of the match thanks to goals from Martel and Saldise. Barça wasted chances to get back into the game before Sergio Lozano combined with Ortiz and Matheus to make it 2-1 on 11 minutes. Nevertheless, Pacheco restored Inter's two goal lead before Pito's goal made it 3-2 to Movistar at half time. 

Second half comeback

The second half started in great fashion with Povill levelling things up for Barça. Lozano added his second of the game and then claimed a hat-trick as the contest went the blaugranes' way 5-3. Pito made it 6-3 and despite Guilhermao's effort for Inter, Velasco's team closed out the win to book their place in the final on Sunday.
