Mallorca and Real Sociedad left the outcome of their semi-final to Anoeta after a fairly balanced match in Son Moix, with few chances and which ended goalless. Imanol Alguacil’s team, without the injured Oyarzabal, began dominating the ball but as soon as it reached the vicinity of the rival area, it lacked ideas to harm Javier Aguirre’s team.
Mallorca shook off the dominance from the twentieth minute and came a little closer to beating Remiro, especially in a volley by Abdón Prats when he hooked a cross from Dani Rodríguez and then in another shot by Dani Rodríguez that was cleared by Le Normand with a header. . The only one for Real in the first half was a header from Nigerian Sadiq.
The second half began without a clear dominator. Mallorca now had more of the ball but Real created more danger on the counterattack. Again Abdón, with a volley that did not find the goal, and then Sadiq with his belly were able to open the scoring, but the goal was resisted.
From the hour mark, Real took control of the match and began to arrive at the Greif area with many people. He had three chances, the clearest once again from Sadiq, already in the 70th minute. The Nigerian missed an incredible goal into an empty goal after a very twisted play that ended in a pass of death.
The San Sebastian domino intensified in the last ten minutes. Mallorca survived locked in their area and everything remains for the return leg, on the 27th at the Reale Arena. The two best defenses in this Cup had lived up to his reputation.
