Real Madrid C.F. reach the Copa Del Rey Final after a brace from Cristiano Ronaldo helped them on their way to a 5-0 aggregate win against Atlético de Madrid. Real have become the first team since 1916 not to concede a goal on their way to the final. Cristiano Ronaldo scored two penalties with the second - his 34th of the season - coming after Gareth Bale was scythed down by Emiliano Insua. Other than his two goals, there were few clear-cut chances in the match. Bale saw his free-kick pushed round the post by Aranzubia, before the 34-year-old goalkeeper made a fantastic block to prevent Ronaldos half-volley from bursting the net. Atletico who were without suspended leading scorer Diego Costa and injured duo Thibaut Courtois and David Villa, were closest when Raul Garcias effort came off a post. Reals Iker Casillas was also at his acrobatic best late on in the match to deny Jose Sosa from scoring with a snap-volley. Shaw Post understands that they will most likely play FC Barcelona in the final as they are currently leading Real Sociedad de Fútbol 2-0 on Aggregate. bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26143037
