Faye also saw an effort saved before Marc Bernal went close with a shot that whistled across goal and wide of the post.
Yet Barca were celebrating on 14 minutes when Fort opened the scoring in some style. The right-back came marauding forward and eventually left fly with a powerful effort that flew across goal and into the back of the net. ¡¡ @FCBarcelonaB !! Héctor Fort, sentimiento azulgrana ❤️ #CórdobaBarçaAtlètic | #PrimeraFederación pic.
twitter.com/TvBfluWBLE — Primera Federación (@Primera_RFEF) June 23, 2024 It was a wonderful effort by Fort but Cordoba managed to level just after the half-hour mark through Alberto Toril. A cross into the area saw Toril get between Pelayo Fernandez and Faye to head home the equaliser and make it 2-2 on aggregate.
¡¡MARCA EL HÉROE DEL @CordobaCF_ofi EN ESTOS PLAYOF.
