LAST 32
What a mess! Real Madrid play their second leg tonight and run out 9-1 winners on aggregate. That makes it 16 victories in a row!
But most other games are only just getting the first leg out of the way.
I'll add scores of interest as they happen.

David Moyes has one of those Sheffield Utd versus Southampton nights tonight as his Real Sociedad take on Real Oviedo.
Oviedo, you'll recall, are battling Real Murcia at the top of their division.....2B Group 1.
So, there's a banana skin waiting for a big boys' slip up.
But, after 30 mins, it's Real Sociedad who are 1-0 up.
60 mins - 2-0....no banana skins here.
Safely through.
(1st leg was 0-0)
And Almeria progress against Segunda team Real Betis.

The big game is Atléti versus Real.
Torres returns!
And it's just gone 1-0 to Atléti - penalty conceded by Ramos, scored by Raul Garcia.
And it's game over for Fernando - no magical goal on his return.
75 mins and it's 2-0.
Superb header by Gimenez from a corner.
So, after 22 consecutive victories, Real Madrid have now lost two in a row!
Final score 2-0.

For our two 'local' teams, first up is Almeria.
And they are down 0-1 against Getafe at half-time.
60 mins and it's 1-1 (penalty)
And so it ends.
After the exuberance of the Vicente Calderon, the atmosphere in Almeria was dire! Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
EDIT.....nearly forgot:
Villarreal 1-0 David Moyes.

Barcelona's turn tonight against our neighbours from Elche.
35 mins and it's Messi to Suarez to Neymar - GOAL!
1-0
(And it seems Elche are in a financial mess. Some wages outstanding back to October!!! Deadline day will be 31st January.)
40 mins - Suarez to Suarez and it's 2-0. Superb solo goal.
44 mins - Neymar hacked down in the box....Messi scores. 3-0.
Half time!
55 mins - sublime pass from Messi finds Jordi Alba on the left.....4-0.
It's an old-style format for Barca - FIVE forwards with Dani Alves also up on the wing.
60 mins and a screamer from Neymar from outside the box makes it 5-0. (Oh....just a small deflection on the way.)
Final score 5-0.

Tonight's second legs:
David Moyes 2-2 Villarreal (Agg. 2-3)
Getafe 1-0 Almeria (Agg. 2-1)
So our two 'interests' lose by the odd goal.

The big night of football begins!
And what a beginning! El Niño is home! First minute and Torres puts Atléti 1-0 up IN THE BERNABEU!
Real need FOUR!
20 mins and Ramos gets the first of them......1-1
As the gardener said to the artmistress.....
What a perfect pair!
First minute of the second half and El Niño makes it 1-2
It's 4 needed again.
53 mins and the other R makes it 2-2 - typical Ronaldo header.
Good game....good game...
And Real hang on for the draw.
But that's not enough...they go down 2-4 on aggregate.

Now to the Provincia de Alicante...
20 mins and Barca's own Mathieu/Mateo/Matthew starts the beginning of the end for Elche.
35 yard Messi-style free kick.....0-1.
40 mins and it's 0-2....Sergi Roberto screamer from outside the box.
43 mins - penalty! Pedro (captain for the night) makes it 0-3.
91 mins and Adrian finishes it off.....0-4. (0-9 on aggregate.)

Here we go then. Barca versus Atléti.
With two Suarez's on the pitch and the possibility of a Xavi against a Gabi it could get confusing!
35 mins and nothing in it. Suarez (Barca) blasts over from 2 yards in front of open goal!
Half-time....stalemate....0-0.
60 mins and it'll soon be time for Xavi vs Gabi!
83 mins and Sr González González is losing control. Juanfran doing what he does best - pushing and shoving - gives away a penalty. A few amarillas later and Messi runs up....Oblak saves...but Messi puts away the rebound. 1-0.
And that's that.
Other first leg results:
Villarreal 1-0 Getafe Malaga 0-0 Athletic Bilbao
Tomorrow it's Espanyol vs Sevilla (KO: 22:00) EDIT:........... result 3-1 to Espanyol.

Barca versus Atléti round 2.
El Niño (Torres) is up to his tricks again - scoring in the first minute to even the tie up.
But, Neymar makes it level on the night after 10. (Messi to Suarez to Neymar!)
But it's got so furious I forgot to post it here!
30 mins and the villain Jaunfran turns hero for Atléti drawing a foul from Mascherano - IN THE BOX!
Raul Garcia knocks it in....2-1 to Atléti.
40 mins and Miranda can't get out of the way - in it goes - OWN GOAL.
2-2.
40 mins and Barca take the lead for the first time tonight - Neymar again after sterling work by Jordi Alba.
Half-time 2-3.
As they go off it's obvious the Atléti players are winding Neymar up. Second half could be tasty!
Fun and games even before the second half gets going!!! Gabi was apparently red carded as they left the field - presumably something to do with the goading of Neymar. Atléti have to play 45 mins with only 10 men.
83 mins and it's all over bar the shouting! Atléti down to 9 men. Atléti's Suarez gets his second yellow and the early bath.
All done.....Barca progress to the semis.
