Real Madrid faced Deportivo Minera in the Round of 16 of the Copa del Rey, delivering an exceptional first half.
Details. The "Blancos" netted three goals within the first 30 minutes, courtesy of Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, and Arda Güler.
This marks the first time Madrid has scored three goals in the opening half-hour of a Copa del Rey match since February 14, 2006, when they achieved the feat at home against Real Zaragoza.
However, the last time they did so in an away match dates back to 1977, against Valdepeñas.
Recall. The future of Carlo Ancelotti as head coach of Real Madrid remains uncertain. Reports suggest potential replacements and conditions under which the Italian could leave his position by the end of the season.
