Real Madrid will be hoping to be the last team to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, and they are on course to do so after taking the lead in their last sixteen matches against Celta Vigo.
Carlo Ancelotti's side dominated the opening stages and if it weren't for Celta goalkeeper Ivan Villar, they would have taken the lead earlier. Anyway, they are now in the lead and it is Kylian Mbappé who has struck the first blow.
It's a stunning solo goal from Mbappé, who has now scored six goals in his last nine games for Real Madrid. After a difficult start to his career in the Spanish capital, he is certainly doing well now.
Real Madrid will be very happy to have broken the deadlock before half-time as this will increase the pressure at the Santiago Bernabéu. Ancelotti will be hoping his side can score more goals to end the match as quickly as possible.
