Valencia leave it late to equalise as they draw 1-1 with Atletico Madrid in Copa del Rey.

Valencia left it late to equalise as they drew 1-1 with Atletico Madrid in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey at Mestalla this evening.

Raul Garcia's 72nd-minute strike was thought to be enough for Los Rojiblancos after he headed home from close range following a mistake from goalkeeper Vicente Guaita.

However, Helder Postiga netted a stoppage-time header to even the tie ahead of the second leg at the Vicente Calderon.

Earlier in the game the keeper made a fine save to deny Garcia's effort before Diego Costa went close on the stroke of half time.

Thibaut Courtois was called into action in the second half when Fede whipped a shot goalwards 10 minutes after the restart.

Los Che should have levelled things late on but Sergio Canales could only strike the crossbar from close range.

Sofiane Feghouli had an opportunity a minute later but Courtois pulled off an impressive stop to deny the Algerian winger.

With the game seemingly heading the way of Diego Simeone's side, Postiga popped up with a close-range header to level the tie.
