There will be just one minute added on at the end of this match.
89'
Torres tries to take on three Elche defenders in the penalty area, but can't find his way through, and once he realises the chance is going, he drops to the ground to try and win a penalty, but the referee isn't having it. He really wants his hat-trick.
87'
Lolo Plá gets yellow.
Y. Carrasco gets yellow.
The Elche substitute is also booked for his role in the altercation.
Carrasco is booked here for al altercation off the ball, getting in the face of Lolo Pla.
85'
STAT: Elche have had just four touches in the Atletico penalty area tonight, compared to 47 for the hosts.
83'
VITAL CHALLENGE! Tekio does superbly to deny Atletico their fourth goal of the night, sliding in at the far post to put in a crucial block to turn the ball behind for a corner.
81'
Fernando Torres was the last player to score a brace at the Vicente Calderon, and he's become the first to do so at the Wanda Metropolitano - and he's threatening to score the first hat-trick at this new venue.
79'
GREAT SAVE! Vallejo makes himself big to thwart Torres from point-blank range on the end of a lovely ball in from Carrasco.
77'
Elche are heading out of the cup tonight without so much as a whimper. They've attempted just one shot so far tonight, none on target, compared to 19 for Atletico, nine on target. That speaks to the hosts' domination.
75'
CLOSE! Atletico pressing for another here, and they're coming close with every attack. They have a taste for goals tonight, already reaching new heights at their new stadium, and they want to climb higher.
Minute
Description
73'
STAT: Atletico Madrid have scored three goals in a match for the first time at the Wanda Metropolitano.
71'
Lolo Plá enters the game and replaces Iván Sánchez.
Saúl enters the game and replaces Koke.
Lolo Pla, scorer of Elche's goal in the first leg, replaces Ivan Sanchez with the final change of the night for Elche.
Atletico also make a change here, with Koke giving way for Saul.
68'
Fernando Torres has scored a goal for Atletico Madrid! Assist by Š. Vrsaljko.
Vrsaljko provides the assist less than two minutes after coming on.
WHAT. A. FINISH! Torres produces a delightful first touch to control Vrsaljko's ball in from the right, and then somehow smashes a thunderous finish over the head of Vallejo, off the underside of the bar and into the back of the net! That was stunning.
66'
Š. Vrsaljko enters the game and replaces T. Partey.
Atletico make their first change here as Sime Vrsaljko replaces Partey.
65'
Incisive attacking play from Atletico, carving Elche apart with some delicious interplay in the final third. Partey is sprung through in the area, just to the right of goal, but he tries to square it for Torres as it's deflected behind for a corner. He had to be more selfish there.
63'
STAT: The 1-1 draw in the first leg ended a run of four successive victories and clean sheets for Atletico Madrid against Elche.
61'
Atletico have to be careful not to get complacent here. Their lead doesn't appear under any immediate threat, but one goal for Elche would certainly set up a tense finish - something Diego Simeone hardly wants or needs right now.
59'
Elche are looking more assured in defence than they had for much of the first half, when they looked vulnerable for long periods. They need to adopt a similarly confident approach in attack, as we approach the hour mark here.
57'
Atletico back on the front foot, controlling play with a more patient approach in possession. Time is very much on their side now, so there's little reason for them to rush with the ball at their feet.
55'
One of the most limiting factors in Elche's game tonight has been the speed with which they transition. They're far too slow going from defence to attack, which has allowed Atletico to regroup when they give the ball away and get their shape back with relative ease.
53'
Edu Albácar gets yellow.
Gallego becomes the first player booked on the night.
52'
STAT: Elche have scored two goals away from home just twice in their last 15 matches, being held scoreless six times in that span.
50'
Plenty of possession here for the visitors, but they have yet to work Moya. The Atletico keeper could have sleepwalked through these first 50 minutes and no one would have noticed. For Elche's sake, that obviously cannot be the case over the final 40 minutes.
48'
Elche start the second half on the front foot, and you have to expect them to force the issue over these final 45 minutes, needing two goals without reply to turn this tie around.
46'
Javi Flores enters the game and replaces Diego Benito.
Adrián Jiménez enters the game and replaces José Peris.
Adrian Jimenez replaces Peris at the break for the visitors.
And Javier Flores is also brought on, at the expense of Diego Benito.
Here we go again!
45'
HALF-TIME: ATLETICO MADRID 2-0 ELCHE.
44'
STUNNING SAVE! Terrific reactions from Vallejo to deny Torres' venomous header from point-blank range, after the striker did well to peel away from his marker to meet a corner.
43'
This crowd at the Wanda Metropolitano is absolutely buzzing! Diego Simeone took nothing for granted tonight, naming close to a full-strength side, and his players have justified his decision, putting forth a terrific display in this first half in front of their home fans.
41'
Torres' goal is a piece of history, as it's the first for the striker at the Wanda Metropolitano. The decorated Atletico striker had been held off the scoresheet thus far at their new stadium, but he's broken the goose egg here with his ninth shot, and you could see how much that meant to him in the celebration, grinning ear to ear.
39'
STAT: Before tonight, eight of the last 10 goals Atletico Madrid had scored against Elche had come in the second half.
37'
This has been an attacking clinic put forth by Atletico. Their quality going forward has been on full display since kick-off, and they are showing no signs of slowing here. They have been rewarded for their efforts, but they don't look satisfied yet.
35'
Almost a third! Elche are shaken and Atletico are taking full advantage! Some lax marking at the back sees Vietto latch onto a cross in from the left, but he knocks it high and wide of the far post!
33'
Fernando Torres has scored a goal for Atletico Madrid!
THAT'S TWO! Atletico have a foot through to the next round! Vallejo makes a strong save at full-stretch to keep out Carrasco's strike from 20 yards, but Torres is on hand to confidently slot home the rebound!
31'
J. Giménez has scored a goal for Atletico Madrid! Assist by Y. Carrasco.
Carrasco provides the assist.
ATLETICO AHEAD ON AGGREGATE! Gimenez sneaks behind everyone to meet Carrasco's corner at the far post and bounce a header in to break the deadlock! That's exactly what Atletico needed from all their first-half pressure!
29'
GREAT SAVE! Elche nearly architects of their own downfall as a poor defensive touch sends Vietto through on goal, but some good pressure is applied on him by Golobart. Vietto can't get a shot off straight away, so has to try and round the keeper, but Vallejo stays with him to parry behind for a corner.
27'
STAT: Atletico’s last five Copa del Rey matches have seen a total of 21 goals scored – averaging 4.2 per match.
25'
OFF THE WOODWORK! Chaos ensues in the area following a delicious strike from Koke that smacks off the inside of the post and stays out! Vietto chases down the rebound but just fails to get to it, before Elche scramble it behind for a corner.
23'
Momentum is starting to even out here following a high-flying start from Atletico. Carrasco has a go here from range, but is sails harmlessly over the bar. Elche have settled into defence quite nicely.
21'
Gonzalo Verdú gets yellow.
Vietto is full of energy right now. He hasn't stopped running since kick-off, and does well to win a free-kick near the halfway line here, bursting out of his end with an excellent display of pace to relieve the pressure on his side following a brief sting in attack for the visitors - and Verdu is booked for the foul.
19'
Elche's attacking influence has been limited here. They have done well to keep the ball when they win it back, but have shown next to no ability to actually work it into the final third.
17'
STAT: Atletico are unbeaten in their last 19 domestic matches, league and cup (W10, D9), dating back to a 1-0 defeat to Villarreal in April.
15'
The movement of Vietto and Torres up top is making life difficult on this Elche defence. The hosts are looking a consistent threat when they get forward, and the excellent width has resulted in a number of inviting balls into the area for the strikers to attack.
13'
The responsibility is in the hands of Elche here tonight, of course, as the 1-1 draw on their home soil has Atletico through at the moment on away goals. They will feel a lot more comfortable with the lead, of course, so don't expect them to sit back.
11'
There's a good tempo to this match, both sides showing plenty of intensity through the opening stages. Despite being heavy underdogs, Elche are not lacking in confidence, buoyed by their strong showing in the first leg.
9'
Elche have started to settle in a bit here. They seem to have weathered the early storm and are starting to spend more time on the ball, but haven't been able to do much with it once they cross half.
7'
STAT: Atletico have lost three of their last five Copa del Rey matches on home soil (W2).
5'
Spirited start here from Atletico, applying waves of pressure as they get forward with every chance they get. They're working the ball around well, spurred on by the terrific atmosphere here in the Wanda Metropolitano.
3'
INCHES AWAY! Torres does so well to fend off a defender to latch onto a ball over the top, and beats the keeper with a finish between him and the post, but somehow his strike sails across the face of goal and wide of the far stick!
1'
AND THEY'RE OFF! Atletico get the match underway, attacking right to left.
Elche are plying their trade in Spain’s third-tier following successive relegations, a long fall from the 2014/15 campaign when they were competing in the top-flight.
Atletico have been on a good run of form, winning three of their last four matches, the lone exception being a goalless draw with Real Madrid – and they remain unbeaten in LaLiga this campaign.
A Lolo Pla penalty cancelled out Thomas Partey’s opener in the first leg as these two sides played out to a 1-1 draw at the Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero, leaving the tie perfectly poised in advance of this second leg.
Hello and welcome to Wanda Metropolitano for the first Copa del Rey match held at the new stadium as Atletico Madrid host Elche!
Diego Simeone makes three changes from the first leg, as he brings out more of the big guns to break this deadlock. Stefan Savic, Koke and Yannick Carrasco are brought into the side at the expense of Sime Vrsaljko, Sergi Gonzalez and Keidi Bare. Antoine Griezmann is on the bench as well, after being left out of the team altogether for the first leg.
Josico makes four changes from the first leg. Tekio, Jose Peris, Dani Provencio and Nino are brought into the side, with Ivan Calero, Manuel Sanchez, Javi Flores and scorer Lolo Pla giving way.
Jose Gimenez and Fernando Torres have Atletico on the verge of the last-16 of the Copa del Rey as their first-half goals have them 3-1 up on aggregate. Elche only need a draw to go through on away goals, however, so it's not completely over just yet.
That's all for our live coverage, thanks for following along. Goodbye!
Fernando Torres scored the first brace at the Wanda Metropolitano, as Atletico Madrid book their place in the last-16 of the Copa del Rey with a dominating 3-0 victory over Elche, a scoreline that could have been a lot worse for the visitors.
