Racing Santander made light of a potentially tricky Copa del Rey quarter-final second leg away to Osasuna to run out 5-1 aggregate winners.

Racing triumphed 3-0 on the night after going in with a vulnerable 2-1 home win in the first match.

Xisco eased the pressure early on with a sixth-minute effort and defender Henrique made things comfortable when he added a second after 22 minutes.

The hosts could not find a way back into the fixture and it was instead left to Sergio Canales to add a third after 78 minutes.

Sevilla lost 1-0 at home to a battling Deportivo La Coruna, but will take their place in the last four having eased to a 3-0 win in the first meeting.

Seville-born striker Rodolfo Bodipo was the scorer for Depor but the visitors could not add to his 43rd-minute strike in the second half.
