BILBAO, Spain (Reuters) – An extra-time goal from Pablo Ibanez snatched a 1-1 draw for Osasuna against Athletic Bilbao in their Copa del Rey semi-final second leg on Tuesday to give them a 2-1 win on aggregate and put them in their first cup final since 2005.

Athletic, down a goal from the first leg, opened the scoring at the San Mames stadium in the 32nd minute when Mikel Vesga flicked on a corner to Inaki Williams, who tipped in the ball from close range.

Osasuna levelled the score and took the lead on aggregate in the 116th minute when substitute Ibanez collected a cross on the edge of the box and volleyed well beyond the reach of goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala.

Barcelona host Real Madrid in the second semi-final on Wednesday, with Barca leading 1-0 from the first leg.
