Seville: The defender of Barcelona, Jules Kounde, reached the deep of extra time to decide an exciting final of the Copa del Rey Classic on Saturday in Seville, winning his team a 3-2 victory over Real Madrid rivals.
The Catalans, aiming at a quadruple this season, won the first important trophy of Hansi Flick’s reign as a coach and a 32nd Spanish Cup that extended records drama.
Pedri sent Barcelona ahead in La Cartuja, but two goals from Real Madrid in seven minutes in the second half, by Kylian Mbappe and Aurelien Tchouameni, achieved the level of Spanish and European champions.
However, Ferran Torres attacked in the 84th minute to take the game to extra time and Kounde pierced home to win it for the League leaders.
The replaced defender of Madrid, Antonio Rudiger, was expelled in recent seconds for seeing an object to the field towards the referee.
Madrid, who began with the top scorer Mbappe in the bank after an ankle injury, suffered an early setback when the left side Ferland Mendy, playing his first game for six weeks, suffered an injury in the thigh.
Carlo Ancelotti sent Fran García instead, with the work of chaining to the dazzling adolescent of Barcelona, Lamine Yamal.
The 17 -year -old Spain star, who dyed the blond hair for the game, exploded it easily when Barça increasingly threatened the target of Thibaut Courtois.
The Catalans, who won the first two classics this season in the Spanish League and Super Cup, scoring nine goals in the process, controlled the ball.
They took the front after 28 minutes, placing the ball in the upper corner with precision and power from the edge of the box.
It was a sensational objective, starting with an intelligent interception of Pau Cubarsi in its own half.
Pedri extended Yamal play to the right, who cut and lifted the ball until the Canarian islander reached the box and had a goal.
Madrid had focused on defending itself, but the Barcelona starter took them out of their shell, and also took Mbappe out of the bench to warm up.
Jude Bellingham began and finished an excellent movement, but it was out of play, and Vinicius Junior would have won a penalty when Inigo Martínez pirate him, but he had also diverted in accumulation.
Barcelona could have doubled his leadership, with the corner of Dani Olmo evading several players and bouncing in the distant post, with Cubarsi unable to get there when Dani Ceballos stopped him.
Referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea was indulgent with some heated Madrid tacle, perhaps intensified by Friday’s drama while the Spanish champions slipped into their comments before the match denouncing attacks against officials by the club’s television channel.
Madrid sent MBAPPE to Rodrygo Goes in the part -time and soon began working at Barcelona’s goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny with Vinicius and Mbappe approaching.
End -to -end
Mbappe took the level of Madrid almost alone in the 70th minute.
The striker came forward and Frenkie de Jong was shot down on the edge of the box. Mbappe took the free kick and fired a low effort in the post.
Seven minutes later, Madrid took the lead, Tchouameni found space to go home the corner of Arda Gular beyond the helpless Szczesny.
Barcelona responded when Yamal played a delicious pass on the top for Torres, which attracted both Rudiger and Courtois, but the Spanish came first and came home.
The controversy, as expected, raised his head before the party was heading to extra time.
Barcelona cried out for a penalty when Rudiger seemed to knock Torres, and then received a deep in the detention time when Raphinha fell under the pressure of Raúl Asencio.
However, the referee, called to review the incident of VAR, revoked his decision and reserved the Brazilian to dive.
In extra time, Barcelona was ascending and probes by a possible winner.
They finally found him when Kound filed a pass from Luka Modric unusually loose and beat Courtois with a powerful effort from outside the box, which caused wild celebrations.
The dismissal of Rudiger and the histrionic prior to the Madrid Party with respect to the arbitration team will ensure that the repercussions work, and the teams meet again in the league in May, which could decide the race for the title.
