The Copa del Rey Final is fast approaching and Barcelona will face Athletic Bilbao on Saturday looking for their first trophy of the season. But in order to do that, they’ll have to do something that literally happens once every century: winning a title in the city of Seville.
Mundo Deportivo has an excellent article about the last time Barça won a Cup Final in that city: it was the 1925 Copa del Rey Final, known at the time as the Spanish Championship. It was a 2-0 win against Arenas de Getxo at the Estadio Reina Victoria, and this was Barça’s lineup that day: Plattko; Planas, Walter; Torralba, Sancho, Carulla; Piera, Arnau, Samitier, Alcántara, Sagi Barba.
