Sevilla have stormed to a 5-0 victory over Mallorca in the first leg of their Copa del Rey last-16 encounter at the Iberostar Stadium.

Alvaro Negredo headed the away side into a 13th-minute lead before the forward struck again five minutes later to put Bilbao in firm control.

The visitors made their dominance count again midway through the first half thanks to Gary Medel's effort.

Mallorca had the chance to get on the scoresheet from the penalty spot in the final stages of the opening 45 minutes, but Giovani dos Santos failed to find the target.

He was made to pay two minutes into the second half when Alberto Botia converted to make it 4-0 and the romp was completed late on through Antonio Manuel Luna.
