game over. 1-0 FT. very good performance and i am proud of the team. you cant do much when any opponent defends like this but we still managed to win. with a little bit more luck 3 more of the dozen dangerous chances could have went in. the 4-0 was a hole too big to climb out of. anyways we are out of the useless cup and can now focus on the 2 trophies that matter. but pellegrini should have pulled out either raul or ruud at half time. that was his mistake.

why are you proud of a 500 million dollar team that cant even beat a hundred dollar team in the Copa Del Ray? If I were you, I would gather up my Real mates, find the highest building, and proceed to carry out mass suicide.
Real Madrid Don't Need To Win A Trophy This Season - Florentino Perez
The president is still fuming over the 'alcorconazo' and is demanding that his players turn the tie around to avoid a humiliating exit...
Although pressure had been mounting on Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini, the Chilean tactician is beginning to turn los Blancos' fortunes around this season.
Club president Florentino Perez has backed the coach by telling him that he is aware of the time it takes to build a successful squad and of the difficulties of coaching one of the world's premier clubs.
"It's very difficult to be coach here," Perez told Noticias Cuatro.
"The Real Madrid [that won] the first five European Cups changed coaches several times. This team always puts the emphasis on the players while others put it on their coaches.
"We are happy with the players that have arrived and with those who were here before, and it takes time to mould them into a team. I'm sure that Pellegrini will finish the season.
"It wouldn't be a failure if we didn't win a trophy. We are in the middle of building a new project. We'll give it stability."
By the end of tonight, Real Madrid may only be competing in two competitions this season. Alcorcon lead 4-0 on aggregate in the Copa del Rey, and Perez is determined that the 'alcorconazo' - the Alcorcon disaster - isn't repeated.
"That result cannot happen. They should not have scored four goals even though fringe players or those coming back from an injury were playing. It was a humiliation. This evening we have the chance to put things right."
We Were Lucky To Concede Only One Goal To Real Madrid - Alcorcon Boss Anquela
The Segunda B coach says his side must forget about the Copa until January...
Alcorcon coach Juan Antonio Anquela admitted his side were lucky but praised his players after they knocked Real Madrid out of the Copa del Rey with a 4-1 aggregate victory.
Leading 4-0 from the first leg, Alcorcon had to defend for their lives in the encounter at the Bernabeu and kept Madrid at bay until the 81st minute when Rafael Van der Vaart grabbed the only goal of the game.
"We fought hard but we were lucky. Madrid has given everything and in the second half could score more goals," he said afterwards, according to AS.
"We stood up at all times and were the better side in parts of the tie. I wish we had tightened up more but it was impossible."
Anquela also pointed out that the Segunda B side were without a number of their first team players and will now return their focus to the league.
"We had injured players in important positions but the important thing is that we have qualified. I'm thinking about the Sporting [Gijon] B on Sunday.
Today we go to dinner together but we will be calm because football takes many turns. Until mid-January I do not want to hear about the Copa. Sporting on Sunday worries us but what is clear is that we don't have the squad to play in two competitions," he declared.

no shit. and madrid was lucky not concede more in alcorcon right?
so whats your point? we had one disgrace of a game because of lack of motivation of players and opponent capitalized on it. why are you talking about it right now? you already got to make fun.
why are the same people who said "you cant buy trophies" (i agree with that) making fun of real madrid for failing by saying things like "wow you spend 30234902 billion but you cant win"? thats a major contradiction LOL.
