In this crazy Cup engendered by Rubiales, a Swedish soccer player of Eritrean origin unhinged a disfigured Real Madrid, who appealed without success to those nights, picks of comebacks that seemed impossible. Alexander Isak, high and fast forward, left in evidence the rotation policy of Zidane and also to some of its merits: Areola, James, Militao Y Nacho. A 20-year-old boy, with three goals and one assist, changed the number of a team that was packed: 21 consecutive games without knowing defeat. The numerous changes in Zidane's alignment stalled the advance that seemed like a very reliable machine. In addition to the compulsory casualties of Casemiro Y Carvajal, the French began the match with Modric, Varane, Isco and Courtois on the bench. The absence of the Belgian was clamorous due to the weaknesses of Areola, portrayed in both the ceded Odegaard. In the goalkeeper there is no debate.

In an endless carousel of contradictory sensations, the Bernabu public loses its sanity. Suddenly it bellowed against Mateu Lahoz, as he cheered for the cancellation of a goal of the Isak out of play. He sighed for the pause and the quality of Odegaard and at the same time lit up with the snatch of Vinicius. “How am I not going to love you,” the animation stage sang in the attempt to come back after the goal of Marcelo. Merino's response buried all the consummation of white heroism, despite a last admirable lease. To the desperate, in a messy exercise of courage. Then, the glances were fixed on the new idol of the Donostiarras and on the centrally developed white ones.

In the middle of the txuri urdin la chavalera festival, the San Sebastian fans, located in one of the roofs of the North bottom, shortened from Aitor Zabaleta, vibrated with the snatches of Isak, reaped of the insecurities of Areola and enjoyed the touches of Odegaard. Pain multiplied by the yield condition. The new cua of the own wood. What a cup, what an unexpected victory, what an unexpected defeat, what a final heart attack.

A white stumble that doesn't even leave Modric He could avoid. Nor the illusion of the skillful Brahim daz, holder for the first time and that until today only added brief participations in six games (three in League, two in Cup and one in Champions) and 97 minutes. The malagueo is unbalanced and his dribbles like Bernabu. An aspirant who needed to take advantage of the few occasions offered by the French, but today was a very hostile date for a kid who struggled to fight with Monreal, in associating with Benzema and offering sparkles. Brahim's bisoez contrasted with Merino's trade and the pause of Oyarzabal, who can already boast of assaulting the Bernabu on a crazy night. It was the third time that Real Madrid and Real Sociedad measured in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey. The previous two precedents were favorable to whites. The first took place in the 1952/53 season, with a Madrid win by 4-0 and a home defeat by 3-1. The second occurred in 1992/93 (4-0 at home and 4-1 outside). Nothing as I live today.
