The team, led by coach Alberto Riquer, will be looking to cap off their impressive season with another cup triumph.
In a major upset, Jaén Paraíso Interior eliminated eight-time Copa del Rey champion Barcelona in the previous round. The match went to extra time. It was Mati Rosa who scored the decisive goal in the final minute to send his team through to the ‘Final Four’.
