With the Blaugrana having already booked their place in the final next month, it took extra-time to decide who would face them following a 1-1 draw in the first leg.

Roger gave Levante the advantage only for a Raul García penalty before the break to send the contest to an additional 30 minutes.

There, Alex Berenguer popped up with the decisive strike with just eight minutes remaining to send the Bilbao outfit into another Copa final.

They will now contest the 2021 edition on 17 April but just two weeks previously, they also have the mouthwatering 2020 final to fight for when they take on rivals Real Sociedad.

That game was postponed last year due to COVID-19 and victory in both could also see their coach Marcelino win three straight Copa finals, having beaten Barcelona with Valencia in the most recent final.

What a month it could be in the Basque country!
