Barcelona have qualified for the Copa del Rey final after beating Atletico Madrid on aggregate on Tuesday night.

The match ended in a 1-1 draw with three red cards awarded. Barcelona won the first leg of the tie 2-1 in Madrid.

Suarez tapped in on 43 minutes, before Barcelona's Sergi Roberto and Atletico's Yannick Carrasco were sent off for receiving two yellow cards each.

Atletico substitute Kevin Gameiro then missed a penalty before equalising late on.

Suarez was then shown a second yellow and will therefore miss the final.

Antoine Griezmann had a goal wrongly disallowed for offside when Atletico had a man advantage, while Lionel Messi also hit the bar with a brilliant free-kick in a frantic second half.

Barcelona will now meet either Alaves or Celta Vigo in the final, with those sides playing the second leg of their semi-final tie on Wednesday.
