Atletico Madrid set up a King’s Cup final with city rivals Real after Diego Costa and Radamel Falcao scored in a 2-2 second leg draw at Sevilla on Wednesday night, to progress 4-3 on aggregate.

Costa, who had scored both Atletico goals from the penalty spot in the first leg, put the visitors in charge after carving an opening for himself in the sixth minute and firing low into the far corner.

His seventh goal in the Cup made him the competition’s leading scorer this season, one ahead of Real’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo.

The Brazilian striker then broke away down the left and crossed low for Colombia’s Falcao, who darted in front of his marker to score in the 29th.

Roared on by a noisy home crowd, Sevilla’s most dangerous player Jesus Navas breathed life back into the tie with a curling shot that went in off the far post just before the break.

Sevilla, who beat Atletico 2-0 in the 2010 Cup final, pressed hard in the second half but did not find a way past Thibaut Courtois again until Ivan Rakitic scored in time added-on.

By then, Sevilla had lost their cool with Gary Medel being sent off 14 minutes from time, and Geoffrey Kondogbia was red-carded at the end, both for fouls on Costa.

Nine-times Cup winners Atletico will meet their neighbours Real in the May 18 final after Jose Mourinho’s men swept past holders Barcelona on Tuesday to secure a 4-2 aggregate victory.

The venue for the match has still to be decided.

“To reach a final is very important for Atletico,” Falcao said.

“We went in search of a result from the beginning. We knew they would come at us and leave spaces.

“We made the most of it and took our chances.”

Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid midfielder Tiago fractured a bone in his right forearm during Wednesday’s semi-final.

The Portugal international received a kick to his arm from Medel during the first half and went off to have it bandaged. He was unable to continue and was replaced by Mario Suarez in the 24th minute.
