Atletico Madrid made harder work of beating lower league side Sant Andreu.
Diego Simeone's men held a 4-0 lead from the first leg, but were a goal down until two late goals secured a 2-1 win at the Vicente Calderon.
Atletico will face either Gimnastic or Valencia in the next round of the Spanish cup.
Sevilla were eliminated from the competition after losing 2-1 on aggregate to third-tier Racing Santander, but fellow La Liga sides Real Betis, Real Sociedad and Almeria all progressed.
