Real Madrid 's win was short lived after Barcelona's, Ferran Torres scored from Yamal's long shot making the rivals even.

Jules Kounde lashed in an extra-time screamer as Barcelona beat Real Madrid to win the Copa del Rey cup.

However, Ancelloti's men went from rage to fury following three of Real Madrid's players being banned.

Rudiger was red carded after throwing something like an ice on the referee, it grew wild and he had to be held back by several team-mates, worsening his ban for misconduct. Madrid's Vazquez was also dismissed alongside the former Chelsea defender.

Jude Bellingham also trespassed in trying to aggressively attack the officials but was restrained by team-mates and he had to be sent off.
