2012 Copa de la Reina de Fútbol

The 2012 Copa de la Reina de Fútbol was the 30th edition of the Spanish women's football national cup. It took place between 8 and 10 June in RFEF's Ciudad del Fútbol in Las Rozas, and it was contested following the end of the 2011–12 Primera División as a final four by the top four teams in the table, a major cut from the previous edition's fourteen contestants. On April 8, the defending champion Barcelona became the first team to qualify for the competition. Athletic Club and [RCD RCD Espanyol (women)|Espanyol (women)|Espanyol] also qualified in subsequent weeks, and Rayo Vallecano clinched the last spot by earning a 1–1 draw against contender Levante in the final date.
Espanyol won its sixth title to tie with Levante as the competition's most successful team by beating Rayo Vallecano in a penalty shootout and Athletic Club—who reached the final for the first time— after extra time. Mari Paz Vilas, who scored Espanyol's winning goal six minutes from the penalty shootout, was named the tournament's most valuable player.
When Espanyol were presented with the trophy, it still had the plaque from the previous edition; players Sara Mérida and Lara Rabal covered the plaque with tape and wrote their team name on it.
