Description
61'
Correa twists and turns outside the area before firing a 30-yard effort harmlessly wide as Sevilla look to restore their lead.
57'
Rico appeared in disbelief after the goal, but he had few reasons to complain. He barely left the ground in his attempt to punch what should have been a relatively straightforward clearance.
56'
D. Siovas has scored a goal for Leganes!
GOAL LEGANES! An equaliser for the hosts and in somewhat unusual fashion! Sergio Rico appeared set to claim a high ball after a corner, but the Sevilla goalkeeper was out-jumped by Siovas, who nodded in from close range!
53'
Sevilla pushing hard for a second goal to begin this half, while El Zhar looks dangerous down the right for Leganes.

A Muriel cross from the left is cleared into the path of Banega, who fires well wide from 25 yards for Sevilla.
47'

46'
Eraso enters the game and replaces D. Brašanac.
We're back underway!
A substitution at the break for Leganes. Brasanac, who was booked in the first half and perhaps fortunate not to be sent off, is replaced by Eraso.
42'
Incredible double save by Champagne! He manages to keep out a Lenglet strike and then denies Mercado, who pounced on the rebound. Excellent goalkeeping by the Leganes shot-stopper.
41'
So close to a second for Sevilla! Correa tries his luck from 25 yards and his effort is deflected just wide!
36'
Brasanac takes a risk on around the halfway line! The midfielder, who is already on a yellow card, appears to move his arm towards a pass that he handles. Sevilla want the Serbian sent off, but the referee is lenient.
34'
Huge opportunity for Leganes! The hosts win possession just outside the area and the ball falls to Beauvue, who curls his effort over the bar! He should've brought his team level.
33'
What a delightful move by Sevilla! They break clear again down the right before a Correa back-heel in the area, but Vazquez's first touch lets him down and the chance goes begging!
28'
There have been a few sloppy moments from both teams since Sevilla scored the game's opening goal.
23'
D. Brašanac gets yellow.
Brasanac is the first man into the book for a rash sliding challenge on Vazquez.
22'
Sarabia gets the assist for the goal. He was left in plenty of space and while he appeared to have released Muriel earlier than he needed to, the striker made no mistake with the finish.
21'
L. Muriel has scored a goal for Sevilla! Assist by Pablo Sarabia.
GOAL SEVILLA! Muriel is released into the area by Pablo Sarabia before the Colombia international picks out the bottom corner to give his side the lead!

11'
Sevilla with a chance on the break! Vazquez wins possession before the visitors counter, the opportunity eventually falling to Banega, who pulls his shot wide from 20 yards. Lively start to this encounter!
10'
A nice move sees Leganes get in behind down the right side of the area, but Mercado intervenes at a crucial moment to clear the dangerous cross.
7'
Leganes perhaps showing how they plan to approach this semi-final as Beauvue gets on the end of a long pass before his ambitious, first-time effort from 25 yards is tame and easily picked up by Sergio Rico.
4'
Early warning signs for Leganes as they are forced to scramble a Sevilla corner clear. Mercado almost got the final touch at the back post before Champagne punched the ball clear!
1'
We're underway!
Welcome to the Estadio Municipal de Butarque for the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final between Leganes and Sevilla.
Both teams come into this clash in decent form, with Leganes having stunned Real Madrid in the last eight, while Sevilla are unbeaten in four games in all competitions.
Asier Garitano's Leganes will be hoping they can get a positive result at home before making the trip to the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in a week's time.
Sevilla (4-3-3): Sergio Rico; Jesus Navas, Mercado, Lenglet, Sergio Escudero; Vazquez, N'Zonzi, Banega; Pablo Sarabia, Muriel, Correa.
Subs: Pichu Cuellar, Mantovani, Guerrero, Diego Rico, Eraso, Joseba Zaldua, Omar Ramos.
Subs: Roque Mesa, Layun, Ben Yedder, Geis, David Soria, Pareja, Nolito.
That means we could see Sevilla debuts for Layun and Mesa – who joined the LaLiga club in respective loan deals on Tuesday – off the bench.
Another Sevilla loan signing, Sandro Ramirez, is also in attendance but isn't in the matchday squad.
HALF-TIME: Leganes 0-1 Sevilla. What an entertaining opening 45 minutes to the Copa del Rey semi-final. Luis Muriel's 21st-minute goal is the difference between the two sides at the break, although Sevilla will feel that margin should perhaps be greater.
FULL-TIME: Leganes 1-1 Sevilla. After Muriel gave the visitors a deserved lead in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final, they perhaps should have gone further ahead. Instead, an error from goalkeeper Sergio Rico in the second half allowed Siovas to head in an equaliser for Leganes, who will head to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan next week with hope of another upset.
