The two stars reacted on social media

Like the rest of us, Carles Puyol and Gerard Pique both loved Barcelona’s Copa del Rey comeback win over Granada on Wednesday night.

The Catalan giants looked set for a disappointing exit but managed to turn the game around in dramatic fashion.

Late goals from Antoine Griezmann and Jordi Alba forced extra-time, and the visitors then went on to win 5-3 to book their place in the last four.

Pique took to Twitter with the message: “What a comeback. We’re in the semi-finals!”

Meanwhile, Puyol was happy to offer his congratulations and was impressed by his former team’s hunger and desire.

He wrote: “Congratulations Barcelona not for going through the tie but for the attitude, the character ... I have seen a hungry team. Visca Barça.”

Barca will now discover their semi-finals opponents on Friday. Sevilla and Levante are already through, while the final quarter-final sees Real Betis take on Athletic.
