Prat secured a remarkable 5-1 victory over San-Rafael in the 1/128-finals of the Copa del Rey on Saturday, 27 September 2026. The result at the San-Rafael ground was nothing short of dramatic — a massive upset that sent shockwaves through the lower tiers of Spanish football. And here's the thing: when a team from the third tier takes apart a local side that often punches above its weight, you know something special happened.
What makes this result particularly striking is Prat's recent trajectory. In their last five competitive outings, the visitors have managed just two wins, one draw, and two losses — a mixed bag that hardly suggested a runaway performance was coming. To be fair, that inconsistency is precisely why this result matters so much. They ground out the win against a side that clearly didn't expect to be on the receiving end of such a thorough dismantling.
The 1/128-stage of the cup is where the real football meets the dreamers, and Prat made their statement clear. Five goals scored, one conceded — the mathematics don't lie about who dominated proceedings. By then, any hopes San-Rafael had of a comfortable afternoon were thoroughly extinguished, and the visitors were already looking toward what comes next in the tournament.
Looking at Prat's recent record, this victory stands out sharply. Their previous encounters show a pattern of grinding results: narrow wins against Cornellà and Espanyol II, but also painful defeats to Vilafranca and L'Hospitalet. This performance suggests a different kind of day — one where everything clicked, and the opposition simply had no answer.
The final scoreline of 1-5 tells you everything you need to know about this cup tie. Prat advanced comfortably, San-Rafael's campaign ended in disappointment, and for those who follow the lower leagues, another reminder that the cup can deliver its own kind of poetry.
