MADRID (AP) — Atlético Madrid has returned to the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey for the first time since 2018 by defeating second-division club Levante 2-0. Marcos Llorente scored a goal and set up another by Álvaro Morata to send Atlético through to the last eight and help it rebound from two consecutive games without a win in the Spanish league. It was eliminated by Real Sociedad in the round of 16 last season and by third-division club Cornellá in the second round two years ago.
