8' CLOSE! Messi's freekick saved

Great save by Soria! Suarez is tripped over from behind by Escudero, resulting in a free kick for Barcelona in a promising position. Messi steps up and shoots, but Soria pulls off an acrobatic diving stop to tip the ball round the near post.

14' GOAL! Sevilla 0-1 Barcelona (Suarez)

There it is! A thumping clearance from Cillessen flies over the disjointed Sevilla back line and picks out Coutinho, who bursts into the penalty area and sets up Suarez for the easiest of close-range tap-ins.

31' GOAL! Sevilla 0-2 Barcelona (Messi)

Messi doubles Barcelona's lead! Iniesta and Alba play a quick one-two deep down the left flank before the full-back pokes a pass back to Messi, who is easily able to get the better of Soria with a thumping first-time strike.

40' GOAL! Sevilla 0-3 Barcelona (Suarez)

It's another for Barcelona! Suarez darts into the Sevilla half of the pitch and pokes a pass over to Messi. The Argentine then sends an excellent ball straight through the defence and back into the path of the Uruguayan, who shakes off Mercado before chipping a deft shot over Soria.

52' GOAL! Sevilla 0-4 Barcelona (Iniesta)

Iniesta scores in what should be his last ever Copa del Rey final! So much space is left open for the midfielder, who heads towards the box and plays a one-two with Messi before rounding Soria and finding the back of the net. Sublime from start to finish, and what a send off for such a fantastic player!

69' Penalty Goal! Sevilla 0-5 Barcelona (Coutinho)

PENALTY! Coutinho thinks he's made it 5-0, but it's a penalty for Barcelona instead! A deflected pass hits Lenglet in the arm before dropping to Coutinho, who easily finds the back of the net but does so just half a second or so after the referee's whistle is blown.

Coutinho steps up and calmly sends Soria the wrong way to pile further misery on a struggling Sevilla side.
