Second-division Albacete defeated Real Madrid 3-2 in the Copa del Rey round of 16, with Jefté Betancor scoring twice—including a 94th-minute rebound—to spark historic celebrations at Estadio Carlos Belmonte. The shock result marred interim coach Álvaro Arbeloa's debut, coming days after Xabi Alonso's dismissal following a Supercopa de España final loss to Barcelona.
