Barcelona defeated Malaga 4-2 on Thursday night to set-up a mouthwatering Spanish Cup semi-final clash against bitter rivals Real Madrid. <img alt="Gerard Pique" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/Pique.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 688px;" /> Thumb&rsquo;s up! Barcelona&rsquo;s Gerard Pique celebrates his goal in the Spanish Cup quarter-final second leg against Malaga with a symbolic tribute to his newborn son. Barcelona won 4-2 and progressed to the semi-finals 6-4 on aggregate. PIC/AFP Gerard Pique scored his first goal since becoming a father for the first time this week when pop star girlfriend Shakira gave birth to their son &mdash; Milan. The defender volleyed home to give Barcelona a 2-1 lead in the 49th minute after teammate Pedro Rodriguez&rsquo;s (9th minute) header was cancelled out by Joaquin Sanchez&rsquo;s right-foot drive three minutes later. Pique celebrated his goal running around with his right thumb in his mouth, in a symbolic tribute to his son. Pique recently posted a picture of little Milan&rsquo;s feet on Twitter. In the picture, the child&rsquo;s shoes have his name embroidered on them in red and blue &mdash; Barcelona colours. Amador Bernabeu, Pique&rsquo;s grandfather, registered Milan as Barcelona member number 171,761. Barcelona&rsquo;s vice president Jordi Cardoner visited Shakira in hospital and presented a tiny Barcelona jersey for Milan. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/feet.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 337px;" /> The picture of little Milan&rsquo;s feet posted by his father and Barca defender Gerard Pique on Twitter. The child&rsquo;s shoes have his name embroidered on them in Barcelona&rsquo;s colours of red and blue. Coming back to the match, Roque Santa Cruz equalised for Malaga in the 68th minute. Eight minutes later Andres Iniesta made it 3-2 after a smart one-two with Cesc Fabregas before Lionel Messi grabbed Barcelona&rsquo;s fourth, heading in an 80th-minute cross from Iniesta for 4-2. Barcelona, who suffered their first La Liga defeat of the campaign last weekend, had drawn 2-2 against Malaga in the first leg. In the night&rsquo;s other tie, Atletico Madrid drew 1-1 at Real Betis for au00a03-1 aggregate and a semi-final clash against Sevilla, who clinched their semi-final entry with a 4-0 win over Real Zaragoza following a goalless first leg. Real Madrid advanced to the semis on Wednesday after a 1-1 draw at Valencia saw them progress 3-1 on aggregate. <img alt="Shakira" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/Shakira.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 769px;" /> Shakira.
