Endrick Extra-Time Brace Helps Real Madrid Past Celta Vigo In Copa Del Rey
Real Madrid threw away a two-goal lead but eventually triumphed 5-2 after extra time against Celta Vigo on Thursday to reach the Copa del Rey quarter-finals, with youngster Endrick netting twice. On the back of a humiliating 5-2 Clasico defeat of their own by Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup last weekend, Madrid seemed to be heading for a relatively serene triumph before two late Celta goals forced extra-time. Madrid players and coach Carlo Ancelotti faced whistles when they walked out after the defeat in Saudi Arabia and it was harder than expected for them to book a place in Monday's draw for the last eight. Kylian Mbappe scored a brilliant opener before the break, although Celta complained vigorously over what seemed a sure penalty in Madrid's area moments beforehand.
