Raul Garcia scored a brace to give Bilbao a-two -goal lead after 38 minutes of play, he scored the opener in the 18th minute and he converted from the spot-kick in the 38th minute.
Though Real Madrid scored via Karim Benzema in the 73rd minute it was not enough to stage a comeback as Bilbao sat back and defended deeply for the entire minute left to be played.
The game ended 2-1 as Bilbao progress to the final to play Barcelona on Sunday.
