Juan Cruz, though, struck twice (39' P. 59') to level it for Leganes. It looked like the game is heading to extra time, just as he did for Los Merengues in the last round.
Young Gonzalo Garcia, however, had other plans. He scored a short-range header in injury time (90+3') to secure his side a passage to the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.
