Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid will face off in the round of 16 of the 2022/23 Copa del Rey.

The only time Madrid have won a Copa del Rey final against Atlético was in 1975 when they won – bizarrely enough – at Estadio Vicente Calderón, Atleti’s former home, in a penalty shootout after a goalless draw. Second-half goals from Raúl García and Jose Giménez led Atleti to a 2-0 home win in the first leg, which was followed by a 2-2 draw at the Bernabéu. Real Madrid have won almost exactly half (114) of the previous 230 - compared to 57 for Atlético - and have lost only one of their last 10 games against their city rivals. If history is anything to go by, Atlético Madrid would much rather meet Real Madrid in the final of the Copa del Rey than at any other stage of the competition. The most obvious thing to say about the Madrid derby is that its participants do not especially like each other, although in particular from the Atleti side. Once again, Real Madrid did the unthinkable.

Real Madrid tapped into the magic that typified last season to advance to the next round of the Copa del Rey.

And Ceballos added the crucial third with five minutes remaining, driving the ball into the corner before diving to the ground to welcome a pile of team-mates. Villarreal were all over Real Madrid in the first half, and opened the scoring inside five minutes. Their second came 10 minutes later, after Militao reacted first to a loose ball inside the Villarreal box.

Asensio was useful and Ceballos had the ball for many minutes which allowed the team to attack better. In the 57th minute Vinicius himself found the perfect pass from Ceballos to make it 2-1. Ceballos and Asensio changed the face of Real Madrid. The Uruguayan had the chance to equalise after a gallop from Mendy, but sent the ball over Jorgensen's goal. But the game did not start well and the defence showed signs of disarray. Ancelotti then went to put his feet on the ground just as he did for Tchouameni months ago when the Frenchman barely brushed the Italian coach's hand in a substitution.

Dani Ceballos played the hero as he scored the winning goal to complete Real Madrid's 3-2 comeback against Villarreal in the Copa del Rey round of 16 match.

Dani Ceballos channels his inner-Guti and inspires Real Madrid to a Copa del Rey comeback.

A game-winning goal, an assist, and a critical hockey assist — involved in all three goal. Improved in the second half after the substitutions, playing in a deeper midfield role alongside Camavinga.
