Almería ended its participation in the Copa del Rey with a defeat against Celta (1-0) in Vigo. Carlos Cuéllar who has been out this week due to minor injury, was not in the squad. Carrillo preferred to reserve Carlos for the important match at the Carlos Tartiere.
Despite the first leg result (1-3), Almería played with dignity in Balaídos. Wass in the first half, scored the only goal of the match. In addition, Ximo Navarro returned to play seven months after a serious injury. After this elimination, Almería can only focus on the league. Oviedo hosts Almería on Sunday, at 19.15. A match for which Cuéllar, one of the references in the Carrillo´s tactical system, hopes to be in shape.
