Conclusion:
The second 45 minutes also end goalless, it goes into extra time. The second round didn’t spoil us with good offensive scenes either, both teams hardly played offensively. Now, of course, the question arises as to who has more grains in the tank for the next 30 minutes. The Corona-plagued Elche or Real, who will still have something in their bones about the trip to Saudi Arabia?

20:51
…Kroos takes the free-kick from the right edge of the box and finds no one to take it.

With 180 seconds left, can you hit the lucky punch? Real get a free-kick in a good position…

Substitution at Real Madrid: Dani Ceballos
82
20:42
There it is, the opportunity for Real! From the right, the royals combine to the edge of the penalty area, where Marcelo puts his heel down super on Vinícius Júnior, who shoots freely in the penalty area on the left, but shoots the ball low into Werner’s arms.
80
20:40
There’s still a good ten minutes to go, will one of the teams score the winning goal or are we going into overtime here?

Yellow card for Toni Kroos (Real Madrid)
Kroos sees yellow for complaining
78
20:38
Vinícius Júnior is lucky enough to beat two defenders on the left. However, Jović does not find his low cross in the middle.
75
20:33
It remains poor in this second round, there are hardly any good offensive scenes on either side.
72
20:32
Double change at Real. Casemiro and Modrić should provide new accents in the offensive game.

68
20:28
Gumbau’s free kick from the right half-field is far too long and sails into the goal. This is how Elche’s attacking efforts in the second round look so far.
66
20:26
The guests keep getting stuck on Elche’s defense, there are no brilliant ideas in attack.
65
20:24
Tete Morente comes on as a substitute for Elche CF
65
20:24
Elche CF replaces Josan
62
20:22
Palacios requires treatment on the pitch, apparently suffering from a right knee problem after colliding with Vinícius Júnior. But he can continue for now.
60
20:19
Elche does not come dangerously in front of the guests’ goal in this second round. They often delay the pace on counterattacks and thus do not come to any dangerous conclusions.
57
20:17
Marcelo tries it from the second row, his shot from 18 meters, inside left position, just misses the right post.
54
20:14
A hair-raising miss from Kroos in midfield gives Elche the chance to counterattack. But they play this very badly and far too imprecisely, there is no chance.
52
20:11
The game is getting a bit more confused, fouls are piling up in midfield.
48
20:08
Can Real take the momentum from the last few minutes into the first half? It seems so! After a short corner from the left, Marcelo crosses to the second post. Jović is there from five meters and puts the ball just past the post to the left. A hit would probably not have counted anyway due to an offside position.
46
20:04
The ball is rolling again, without any personnel changes on either side it goes into the second round.

Kick-off 2nd half
45
19:53
Mid-term conclusion:
In what was largely an uneventful game, both teams went into the break 0-0. Elche was the dominant team for a long time and should have taken the lead in the tenth minute through Carrillo, but he was denied by the aluminum from two meters. As a result, Elche remained cheeky and had more opportunities, especially through Carrillo. Real only woke up in the last ten minutes, but Camavinga and Rodrygo missed from a promising position.
44
19:48
Real is now taking control of the game and is also becoming dangerous offensively, the royals seem to have woken up.
42
19:47
Super solo by Marcelo, who beats three opponents on the left and then has his eye on Rodrygo in the penalty area. But he doesn’t hit the ball properly from seven meters, at the far post Vazquez narrowly misses the accidental shot, there was more in it.
40
19:44
Now a good opportunity for Real. Again, it is a one-two from Marcelo with Vinícius Júnior who initiates the scene, the latter then goes through on the left, puts the ball in the backcourt, where Camavinga fails from 16 meters, central position to Werner.
38
19:42
Lucas Pérez falls to the ground in the penalty area and demands a penalty. There is a small contact, but this takes place outside the penalty area. Pérez only falls two meters after contact and, correctly, is not awarded a penalty.
36
19:40
The game ripples in the last few minutes. Elche is very good defensively, Real can’t think of anything.
32
19:37
A one-two from Marcelo with Vinícius Júnior gives Real some space on the left. Marcelo’s cross is then cleared for a corner. After this, several crosses sail into the penalty area, but Elche can always clear it up without any problems.
29
19:34
Furthermore, it remains a disappointing performance of the guests from Madrid. The Royals are not offensive yet, a lead for Elche would be well deserved.
27
19:31
Next good opportunity for moose! After a nice relay pass, Mojica has plenty of room to cross on the left again. His cross finds Carrillo’s head. Lunin safely parries his central header touchdown from new meters.
22
19:25
Los Blancos continue without a dangerous finish. Kroos attempt from around 20 meters, central position, is more of a return than a real test for Werner.
20
19:24
Mojica has plenty of time and space to cross on the left, in the middle Nacho clears Carrillo with a header. After the corner that followed, Carrillo was relatively free to head the ball from seven meters, but missed the goal by around half a meter.
17
19:21
So far, Real has been working a lot with diagonal balls. After such a change of game, Valverde tried it from a distance, but his shot was blocked.
13
19:19
Real is now trying to get some control of the game, but Elche keeps countering dangerously and has so far remained more determined.
10
19:17
Aluminum from Elche! Marcelo totally misjudges a long ball, so Josan is free on the right in the penalty area, puts the ball great in the middle, where Carrillo doesn’t manage to get the ball into the goal from two meters, it fails on the crossbar. What a chance!
9
19:15
Kroos found Jović on the left of the penalty area with a good chipball across the entire defense, who got stuck but was awarded Real’s first corner. But this is ineffective.
6
19:12
Diego González underestimated a long ball from Nacho and almost put Vinícius Júnior into play. In the end, the defender just got it clarified on the right edge of the penalty area. They must not allow themselves such carelessness too often.
4
19:09
Quiet start to the game, both teams have so far neutralized themselves in midfield.
1
19:05
After a minute’s silence for late Real legend Francisco Gento, referee Figueroa Vazquez releases the ball, Real kick-off.
18:55
The teams enter the lawn. In a few minutes the ball will be rolling here in the Manuel Martinez Valero Stadium in Elche.
18:51
The two teams last met in the league in October. A brace from Vinícius Júnior handed Los Blancos a 2-1 win. Leaders Madrid are definitely the favorites in the duel against the 15th in the league today, who celebrated an important victory in the fight to stay up in the league at the weekend.
18:43
Elche coach Sempere also changes the goalkeeper, Werner starts instead of Édgar Badía (bench). Likewise, Fidel, Josan, Raúl Guti, Palacios and Chetauya start for Barragán, Mascarell (both not in the squad) and Tete Morente, Verdu and Pere Milla.
18:34
Coach Carlo Ancelotti rotates his eleven vigorously. Only Alaba, Kroos, Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior and Vazquez remain in the team from the last game in the Spanish Supercup against Bilbao. Lunin is in goal today, Nacho, Marcelo, Valverde, Jović and Camavinga also start. Stars like Benzema, Courtois or Militão are not even in the squad today.
18:08
In the last round, both teams struggled for a long time. Los Blancos beat third division side Alcoyano 3-1 but only managed to turn the game in their favor there in the last 15 minutes. Elche also won 2-1 against second division team Amleria in the last quarter of an hour.
17:44
Happy Thursday evening and a warm welcome to the Copa del Rey Round of 16. Elche CF host Real Madrid at their home arena. Kick-off is at 19:00.
