Real Madrid punched their tickets to the Copa del Rey semifinals for just the third time in the last decade with a 2–3 victory over Leganes.
With so many players unavailable for Real Madrid, including Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham and Thibaut Courtois, Carlo Ancelotti relied on his bench players to get the job done at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque. It was one of his veterans, though, who got the scoring started. Luka Modrić buried just the second Copa del Rey goal of his entire career, all created by Rodrygo on the left wing.
