Barca breaks its bad habit

Catalans snap 10-year winless run at Sociedad

Barcelona ended a decade-long winless drought at Real Sociedad on Thursday as Neymar's first-half penalty handed the reigning champion a 1-0 Spanish King's Cup quarterfinal, first-leg lead.

Atletico Madrid also took a huge step towards the semifinals as goals from Antoine Griezmann, Angel Correa and Kevin Gameiro downed an under-strength Eibar 3-0 at Vicente Calderon Stadium.
