Atléti made a rapid start in their Copa del Rey quarter-final at Real Betis on Thursday.
Diego Simeone’s outfit opened the scoring after just 12 minutes through Dávid Hancko’s glancing header.

The provider was none other than Atlético’s stalwart midfielder, Koke, who picked out his teammate at the near post.
With that assist, Koke continued his excellent personal record against Real Betis, taking his assist tally to seven against Los Verdiblancos.
Koke also haunted Real Betis in LaLiga earlier this season, assisting Giuliano Simeone’s opener when the sides met in October.
