Barcelona will be confident of progressing to the last 16 of the Copa del Rey after a 4-0 win against Huesca in the first leg at Estadio El Alcoraz this evening.

The visiting Barca were two goals to the good inside the first 20 minutes as Ivan Rakitic got the ball rolling with a free kick from around 25 yards.

Andres Iniesta then doubled the lead on 16 minutes when he hammered in an effort into the corner from the edge of the box.

Pedro then extended the advantage six minutes before the break after cutting in on his right foot and squeezing a strike past the goalkeeper.

Huesca almost reduced the arrears five minutes into the second half but Tyronne del Pino could only fire wide when well placed.

However, Rafinhna made it 4-0 when he scored via a deflected effort on 71 minutes.
