Real Madrid have progressed to the Copa del Rey quarterfinals after an exciting victory over Villarreal.

Real staged a stunning second-half comeback to win 3-2 at Villarreal.

Carlo Ancelotti's men had fallen 2-0 behind in the first half courtesy of goals from Etienne Capoue and Samuel Chukwueze.

But the visitors responded in superb fashion, as Vinicius Jr and Eder Militao drew them level before Dani Ceballos netted the winner four minutes from time.

Real are in the last 16 of the Champions League and travel to Liverpool in the first leg on 21 February.
