Real Madrid out of Copa del Rey
As much of you might remember, or maybe not, about a week back I made a posting about Real Madrid falling 4-0 to a third division team named Alorcon in the Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup). Well this Wednesday was the return leg, and Real were playing in their home ground Santiago Bernabeu to try and overcome the 4 goal deficit. The fans did not know what to expect, and the result they saw was not a very likable one. In order to go through on to the next round, Real needed to win by 5-0, and they simply did not get the job done. They only neted one past the Alorcon goalkeeper, failing to go through. The crowd's disapproval could be seen, or rather heard, toward the end of the match when they started booing everytime Real got the ball, and applauding everytime Alorcon got the ball. So Real are out of the Cup, but they still have very good chances in both the Champion's League and the Spanish League.
