Copa Del Rey semi-finals: Valencia hold Barca, 1-1

Valencia served a reminder of its proud heritage as a football team holding Barca and then denied Leo Messi a PK goal in the Copa Del Rey semi-finals first leg.
Jonas gave the home side the lead at the Mestalla but Carles Puyol who seems to have made a career scoring very important headers equalized for the Blaugrana.
Valencia’s goalie, Diego Alves became a hero after he guessed right and stopped Messi’s PK awarded after Thiago Alcantara had been brought down.
