Real Madrid reached a historic milestone in their 4–4 draw with Real Sociedad when Aurélien Tchouaméni scored the club's 10,000th goal.
The sold-out crowd at the Santiago Bernabéu breathed a sigh of relief when the final whistle blew in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semifinals. Los Blancos needed a 115th minute winner from Antonio Rüdiger to defeat Real Sociedad 5–4 on aggregate to advance to the Copa del Rey final, where they are set to face Barcelona.
Lost among the chaos of the night was a landmark achievement for the hosts. Real Madrid became one of the few teams in the sport to score 10,000 goals. While most would have expected Kylian Mbappé or Vinícius Júnior to bag the historic goal, it was actually Tchouaméni who gets to put his name in the club's history books.
The midfielder sent a header into the back of the net in the 86th minute to give Real Madrid the momentary edge in the Copa del Rey clash before Mikel Oyarzabal brought the tie level again with a goal in stoppage time. Real Madrid then needed to score their 10,001st goal to get past Real Sociedad.
