Barça 3–2 Voltregà Movento Stern: Cup finalists!

History making Senergy Renovables Sant Just wait in the final after a thrilling semi final win for the blaugrana roller hockey team

One win away from another Copa del Rey! Barça have beaten Voltregà Movento Stern after a tight 3-2 semi-final and on Sunday at 8pm CET they'll be taking on Senergy Renovables Sant Just, who 3-1 in their own semi against Parlem Calafell.

The game lived up to its billing and despite some fabulous hockey, Barça struggled to find a way to beat inspired an Voltregà goalkeeper. But just before the break, Pau Bargalló finally did it  and just after the restart João Rodrigues put the ball in the net after a dramatic series of failed attempts by his team-mates to do likewise.

Voltregà missed a penalty before Jordi Burgaya did get them back to within one with ten minutes to play, but when Èric Vargas was sin-binned, Barça had a golden opportunity to sentence things once and for all. And there was Pau Bargallót to do it.

But the two-goal lead didn't last long. João Rodrigues was blue carded and Àlex Rodríguez took advantage of it to pull his team back to within one. But there was no time for another and Barça can start preparing for what promises to be a thrilling final on Sunday evening.
