Real Madrid got the better of Real Sociedad thanks to Endrick’s solitary strike, and the forward had the following to say after the final whistle: “It was a difficult game, a Copa match that everyone wants to win. It’s not easy to play here, but we did what we came to do – win the game. We’re 0-1 up, which is great because the return leg is at home. We’re going back to Madrid to train hard for the next game against Betis. When the second leg comes around, we’ll go all out to win it because we want to get our hands on the Copa.”
“I started the move off with a pass to Vini Jr., he laid it to Bellingham and I had space to run into. When he saw me, I made the run and he delivered the ball. I took it down well and shot with the outside of my boot. I think it was a really nice goal. I love scoring goals because I want to help the team but I can do that by scoring or running hard too. I’m thrilled to get the win and the goal.”
Hitting the woodwork
“I’m a bit annoyed with the one that came back off the bar now because I could have done better. But that’s how I’ll improve, by looking at my mistakes and seeing what I can do better. I’m pleased I got the goal and we’re still chasing the Copa.”

Bellingham's pass
“When Bellingham got on the ball and spotted the space in behind and I had to make the run, I knew he'd find me with the pass. He's one of the best players in the world and I knew the ball would come. I had to control it well and do a good job, then when I was up against the keeper, make sure I finished. I hit it with the outside of the boot because I had to.”
Fourth Copa goal
“I'm a hard worker and I have to keep this up. When I get the chance to play, I have to do something: score, run, or do whatever's necessary for the team. The most important thing is for me to help the team whenever I play. I like helping the team out and that's what I do. I'm really happy with my fourth goal in the cup and sixth of the season."
