Barcelona did what it had to do in the Copa del Rey. They moved on to the next round after defeating third division side Cultural Leonesa (5-0).
Before the match there was a minute of silence in memory of Robert Enke. The German goalkeeper, who died on Tuesday night, had a two year spell with Barca after moving from Benfica in 2002.
The game ignited in the second half. Cultural Leonesa, that lost the first match at home (0-2), lost their hopes of a historic win in ten minutes. Bojan Krkic ended their hopes of a sensational victory scoring two goals in less than five minutes.
In the next round of the Cup, Barcelona faces Alcorcon. The third division side threw Real Madrid out of the Cup (4-1 on aggegrate).
Fifth round Copa del Rey:
Alcorcon - Barcelona
Atletico Madrid - Sevilla
Valencia - Villarreal
