Real Madrid’s quest for a 20th Copa del Rey title begins on the 20th anniversary of Raul’s debut for Los Blancos. October 29th could also mark Real’s 10th consecutive victory since losing 2-1 to La Liga champions Atletico Madrid in mid-September.
“We go into the match with the same tension and focus as all other games. When we pull on the Real Madrid shirt it's always the same,” Carlo Ancelotti told the press.
“The Real Madrid shirt brings responsibility, and the players understand that fully.”
Real Madrid have never lost at the renamed Power8 Stadium, opened back in 2009. Their record reads five victories and one draw. They are poised to pick their seventh win at this venue against minnows Cornella. The hosts were promoted to the Segunda B this season. Founded in 1951, it will be the first time ever that they come up against Los Blancos.
They will want to relish the occasion which will be missed by Cristiano Ronaldo who has been given a day’s rest by Carlo Ancelotti. Other key players out of this Spanish Cup fixture are Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and suspended Pepe.
So what can the home crowd and traveling fans expect from the visitors? Ancelotti declared:
“We don't know a lot about Cornellà. I've seen some games. They're a team who are really up for it.
“It could be the game of their lives. It's really good for football that they can compete against us. We have to show them respect and play a disciplined match.”
