Sevilla striker Fredi Kanoute was booked for making a political statement in favour of Palestine after scoring against Deportivo La Coruna in the Copa del Rey last 16 first leg.
The Malian scored Sevilla's second goal in a 2-1 win before lifting his shirt to reveal another with "Palestine" written across it
Luis Fabiano scored Sevilla's opening goal while Omar Bravo pulled on back for the visitors.
Third tier Poli Ejido came from behind to clinch a 3-2 win at home to Espanyol.
Liga strugglers Espanyol took the lead with a Moises Hurtado header in the first half, but the Segunda B side hit back after the break.
Jorge Molina put away a penalty and then helped set up Juli for their second before Roman Martinez curled in a superb equaliser for the visitors.
The goal of the game came as Ejido's Chico lashed high into the top corner from 25-metres for the winner, with Espanyol's challenge fading after Moises picked up his second yellow card.
The other non-Primera Liga club left in the competition, Segunda B side Real Union, fell 1-0 at home to Real Betis.
Holders Valencia scraped a 1-1 draw away to Racing Santander, while on Tuesday, a Lionel Messi hat-trick gave Barcelona a 3-1 away win over Atletico Madrid in the round's opening first leg.
The second legs are scheduled for next week.

gecko_twister stick to what you know.... politics ain't it.. britain ruled the world for 200 years and thats it.. in our long history it has been virtually a side show and has contributed to nothing before it.. hitler would have strangled britain if he didnt have to fight on 3 fronts.. and your lot were scared as hell from him.. as for gaza its complex. you don know how the palestinians are living off as worse than prisoners even in peaceful times with no water or food due to israel.. palestineans are the victims. israels gvt and hamas are the problem..
Also islam are not terrorists.. there are just a little minorities in it.. remember one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.. as for terrorism europeans have terrorised the world for ages.. read about the crusades boer wars opium war or anything else too. american used the atom bomb.. nothing is ever simple in politics.. you don know anything so don claim to be an expert.. neither am i..
Islam will not stop until they take over the world like hitler tried to....they must be stopped, acting like victims makes me sick
zak33 You are forgetting that the germans did attack britain and we kicked there a**, sent them packing...i do believe the uk is the only country in the world not to lose a war. If hamas did not bomb israel they would not get bombed back, its as simple as that. The hamas are ultimatly responsible for the gaza strip
you say we should to keep the politics away from sports ok that's fine so why the UK goverment didnt allowed england cricket team to play in zimbabwe?
why the US team didnt go the Olympics game in Moscow?
why the european goverment banned yougoslavia to play the euro and replaced them by Denmark when they won it?
sports is always part of politics matter what
grcko tewister, how you feel if the germans once again invide England and kill anyone who try to fight back. no foods, no medecins, no help, no one allowed to access in to help you, no media allowed, bombading london where anyone can get killed, and take the control of the whole england and you will leave like slave?
that's what sionists did since the UK let them in Palestine them made them state and that's what the whole goverments in US and UK are jewish or pro jewish,
thanks to Kanoute better to do what you did than others celebrate with sniffing drugs or drinking alcohol like you all do
But kanoute should of kept his views, right or wrong off the football pitch. If kanoute had a pro - israel shirt underneath he probly would be attacked and yet they still think they are the victims...what a joke
binalielbasheer - to say the us and britain are responsible for wars is crazy!? so are you telling me Bin Laden is innocent? Sadam Husain is innocent? and its the us and uks fault for standing up to these poor excuse for human beings? I suppose you think they should have free reign to do whatever they can. The us and uk have helped iraq and afganistan back onto there feet and would have suffered far worse if the us and uk didnt do anything
I hate the way religion controls life today, and a Footballer has the right to say what he likes in his own free time! I agree 100% in what he was trying to accomplish, and I commend him on that. But unfortunately he was not in his free time, and he should not have done what he did (whilst at work). In the public eye people have to be very careful what they say and do, even if they are morally in the right.
Westers let us understand that Saddam invade Kuwait. What can we call What Isreal is doing wright now.
Isama Nigeria
kanoute keep it Up
The westerners are disturbing the peace of the world.
Thanks Kanoute for support Palestine. Well done. Why the Kanoute was booked for saving people's message in Palestine? Suppose we give support this,not yellow card!
when did the world become so confused?
Gecko twister i cant blame you cos your comment has completely express your ignorance about islam nd muslims it also indicate that you were completly brain washed by imfidels who always spread bad words against islam and muslims using their media propaganda. Cant you please relax and think about what is happening in Iraq, Afganistan, palastin and many other muslim and nonmuslim nations. Who is responsible for the inhuman activities taking place in the above mention countries?
The answer is America, British, France, Israel and their allies. They are also responsible for Iraq war, Afganistan war, september 11 attack, Israel agression over palastin,many African civil war if not all. Gecko! hear saying can never be an evidence try & know the reality do not cover the truth.
Didin Nigeria
Message to All Not Educated And They Are Cowboys Originally The Killer Of 13,000000 Red Indians.They should go and learn what Islam means and they should have common sense of Humanity in that time they call them self human.
I found some of people dumb enough to understand what going on in Gaza. If someone is Muslim then they easily call them Al Qaeda or terrorist. Stupid!! Israel and USA make more war then other Muslim country they called as terrorist. Killing thousand, millions innocence lifes. Boycott Israel and USA product so they will put away their madness and beast action. All around the world people hates Israel and USA . My salute to Kanoute ..dont hide the truth like Israel and USA does.
To many people are brainwashed from the media propaganda
This is actually the first I had ever even heard of Kanoute, but I am a fan now.
Why so many bigots among these comments? Maybe some of you ought to read some news and a little history instead of wasting so much time with sports. If you did that, you might not sound so ignorant.

@ gecko_twister : hope God send you to hell forever..!
When every muslim is dead only then will the world be at peace. Thay play victim while they are responsible for more deaths then the gaza strip could ever immagine
