Real Madrid lost in the final of the Copa de la Reina at the Municipal Butarque stadium in Leganés.
The madridistas dominated the game in the opening stages, but on the quarter-hour mark, Atlético could have taken the lead on two occasions. First with a header from Ajibade that went over the bar and, shortly afterwards, with an effort from Banini that Misa parried away. From that moment on, Toril's charges went in search of the first goal of the game and on the half hour mark they broke the deadlock. Athenea swung in a corner and Toletti produced a fine header to beat the keeper and make it 1-0.
In the 38th minute, Atlético almost drew level, but Misa did well to keep out Ajibade's shot. After the break, Marta Cardona fired a shot from the edge of the area and the Madrid keeper once again made a smart save. The Whites took the game to Atletico and almost grabbed their second goal through Weir. The Scotswoman controlled a good pass, skipped past the opposition defence and fired in a shot that Lola Gallardo turned wide.
Luck not on Madrid’s side
Madrid's insistence paid off again eleven minutes after the re-start. Linda Caicedo delivered a pinpoint cross into the box from the left wing for Ivana to head home to make it 2-0. Atlético then went all out and equalised in the dying minutes with a goal from Lucía Moral in the 88th minute and another free-kick from Banini in stoppage time. In extra time, Madrid went in search of a goal and first Weir fired a shot that went just over 96' and then Olga had another effort that ended up in the goalkeeper's hands. The tension was running high and the final was decided in a penalty shoot-out in Atlético's favour 1-3.
