MADRID, 21 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Villarreal CF needed extra time to eliminate CD Guijuelo (1-2) in the second round of the Copa del Rey and reach the round of 32, a round that will also include Athletic Club, who did the right thing in the derby against Sestao, as well as Elche, Getafe and Mallorca, among others.

There were hardly any surprises in this start of the second round, but it was close. The biggest would have been to see the Salamanca team CD Guijuelo de Tercera eliminate the 'Yellow Submarine', and it was close to the feat since the people from Castellón needed extra time.

Guijuelo took the lead with a goal from Pepe Carmona almost a quarter of an hour into the game, but the expulsion of the local player Quintana on 26' began to make the company even more complicated for Guijuelo, who held out until the international Gerard Moreno , from a penalty in minute 41', equalized.

After a goalless second half and a lot of local resistance, Danjuma achieved the final 1-2 win for Villarreal three minutes into extra time. In addition, Guijuelo suffered a second expulsion, that of Álex Lorenzo at 103', and he was left without strength or arguments to look for the epic.

For its part, Athletic Club narrowly missed the Vizcaya derby at the home of Sestao River (0-1). The Sestao started better, motivated and with a first quarter of an hour in which he put Agirrezabala to the test. A game in which the best thing for Athletic was to see Iker Muniain surpass, with 511 games, another idol like Andoni Iraola.

In football, the veteran Raúl García used his experience to finish off a free kick taken by Zarraga to get the ticket to the round of 32 of a Cup in which they are the second club, behind FC Barcelona, ​​with the most titles conquered.

RCD Mallorca, who beat Real Unión with a solitary goal from Dani Rodríguez on 20', also joined the trend of passing RCD Mallorca with a brief 0-1. Mallorca suffered, who found themselves locked in their area at times and who, yes, could have sentenced twice, unsuccessfully on both.

And, in the last game of the day, RCD Espanyol beat the modest Atlético Paso 0-1, with a goal by Nico Melamed on minute 80 to avoid disappointing the already flagging 'perica' fans. Luck of the goal, which came after a cross from Oliván, an extension from Joselu and a shot from Melamed diving for the ball.

On the other hand, other 'First Divisions' that went through more easily were Elche CF, who beat Gualajara 0-3 with goals from Pere Milla (5'), Ezequiel Ponce (82') and José Antonio Morente (92'), and Getafe CF defeated Diocesano, with a brace from Munir (31' and 53').

On the other hand, the great joy was for CF Intercity, who won 2-0 (goals from Oriol Soldevila and Mari) against CD Mirandés to be one of the surprises in the round of 32.

FC Cartagena also passed the round, in a penalty shootout (2-3) after Musto transformed the final shot that left Alcorcón out of this Cup. The local team, second in the First RFEF, put a Cartagena on the ropes that is eighth in LaLiga SmartBank and that came out unharmed by the hair of the Madrid fiefdom.
