Gerard Pique insists that Barcelona's Copa del Rey last-16 tie with Cordoba is not over, despite a 2-0 first-leg win for his side on Wednesday.

Gerard Pique has insisted that Barcelona's Copa del Rey last-16 tie with Cordoba is far from over, despite a first-leg win for his side.

Two goals from Lionel Messi helped Barca to record a 2-0 victory at the Segunda Division outfit on Wednesday.

"We knew that they would be a complicated rival, especially at home," Pique told the club's official website. "Their fans were fantastic and they helped their team a lot.

"The tie is in our favour but it's definitely not over."

Cordoba travel to the Camp Nou for the return leg on January 9.
