For the second year in a row, Alcoyano made Real Madrid fight hard in the Copa del Rey last 32, but this time the Spanish giants prevailed.
Last year, Alcoyano, a third-tier team, upset Real with a 2-1 extra-time victory.
Carlo Ancelotti’s team took the lead thanks to Eder Militao’s header, but Alcoyano were leveled thanks to Dani Vega’s magnificent solo strike.
Eder Militao headed Real Madrid into a first-half lead
Marco Asensio scored after an assist from Eden Hazard, and Juan Jose’s 42-year-old own goal secured the victory.
Barcelona needed a comeback to beat third-tier Linares 2-1 earlier in the day.
