The first leg of the latest round of the Spanish equivalent of the FA Cup, the Copa del Rey, Mallorca away in San Sebastián at Real Sociedad. The home side had most of the possession in the first half but Mallorca, for once, outpassed an opposition. However, Sociedad went in at half-time one-up, thanks to a header from Aranburu after quarter of an hour. And soon into the second period the lead was extended by Agirretxe. While efforts on goal evened themselves out, a familiar failure to convert scoring opportunities let Mallorca down. A two-nil deficit, the return leg is on 10 January.
