Endrick fires Real Madrid to win over Real Sociedad

Teenage sensation Endrick was the match winner for Real Madrid as they claimed an important 1-0 win over Real Sociedad at La Anoeta. Los Blancos have taken charge of their Copa del Rey semi-final by winning the first leg away from home.

With Mbappe and Rodrygo missing, Endrick led the line for Carlo Ancelotti's side, and needed just 19 minutes to score. The 18-year-old latched onto a through ball from Jude Bellingham before applying a brilliant outside-of-the-foot finish to put his side ahead in the game.
