Meanwhile, Real Sociedad will play Atletico Madrid in the final of the Copa del Rey after a 1-0 home win over Athletic Bilbao in the second leg of their semifinal on Wednesday and a 2-0 win on aggregate.
Mikel Oyarzabal scored an 87th-minute penalty given by the VAR after a shirt pull on Yangel Herrera.

Guedes forced two corners and Barrenetxea won a free kick, from which Carlos Soler forced a flying save from goalkeeper Alex Padilla.
Guedes' pace was a constant threat as he pulled the ball back from a tight angle in the 33rd minute, while the visiting defense scrambled the ball away.
He was then close to setting up Soler after Aitor Paredes lost possession, only for Paredes to redeem himself with a last-ditch challenge.
Athletic Bilbao looked to get on the front foot in the second half with Oihan Sancet almost through on goal, only to be denied with a late challenge from Sergio Gomez, while Alex Berenguer also fired wide.
The decisive moment came when the VAR called the referee over after spotting a shirt pull on Herrera. After a long delay, Oyarzabal slotted the ball home.
The final will be held on April 18.
