Real Madrid qualifies for Copa del Rey semi-finals

FOLLOWING the conclusion of Wednesday’s quarterfinal tie between Real Madrid and Leganés, the Los Blancos side secured a win to advance to the semifinals.

Real Madrid went 2-0 up before the half-hour mark with goals from Modrić and Endrick.

However, Juan Cruz reduced the deficit from the penalty spot and in the second half, Leganés equalised when a shot from Juan Cruz deflected in off Mendy.

Eventually, Madrid won the game as Gonzalo scored a late goal in stoppage time to give Carlo Ancelotti’s side the win, which put them in the semifinals. 

Atlético Madrid had already booked their place in the last four after beating Getafe 5-0. 

Valencia will face Barcelona, and Real Sociedad will tackle Osasuna in the other Copa del Rey quarter-final fixtures on Thursday.
