Real Madrid 5-2 Celta Vigo (AET): Player ratings as Endrick sends Los Blancos into Copa del Rey quarter-finals | OneFootball

A late flurry from Endrick helped Real Madrid earn a 5-2 victory against Celta Vigo on Thursday night as Carlo Ancelotti's side snuck into the Copa del Rey quarter-finals after extra time.

Fresh from Sunday's chastening Supercopa de Espana defeat to Barcelona, Madrid headed into the midweek cup tie wounded. The capital club landed the first blow, taking a first-half lead through a stunning individual goal from Kylian Mbappe, who continues to improve with each outing in all white.

Vinicius Junior doubled Madrid's advantage within three minutes of the restart, finishing off a crisp forward thrust which involved all three members of Madrid's attacking trio. However, Celta Vigo would not go down without a fight.

Jonathan Bamba equalised for the visitors in the 83rd minute as Pablo Duran gobbled up Eduardo Camavinga's sloppy touch on the edge of his own box and squared for his fellow substitute. Bamba then won a stoppage-time penalty for Celta, getting a toe to the ball ahead of Raul Asencio who clattered into the Ivory Coast international.

Former Barcelona full-back Marcos Alonso - whose grandfather Marquitos was a five-time European Cup winner with Madrid - coolly converted to force extra time.

With a penalty shootout on the horizon, Endrick electrified the Bernabeu with a thunderous drive. The much-maligned Brazilian has repeatedly been linked with a move away and offered precious few minutes by Ancelotti, but dug his under-pressure manager out of hole with a late go-ahead goal on Thursday night.

Fede Valverde, an undisputed Ancelotti favourite, confirmed Madrid's passage into the quarter-finals before Endrick grabbed his second of the evening with an impish flick. Madrid could face Barcelona in the next round but will not come up against defending cup champions Athletic Club, who were knocked out on Thursday.
