In the third round of the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid defeated Segunda Federación side Talavera 3-2 away from home, successfully advancing to the round of 16.
Kylian Mbappé scored a brace in this match, pushing his 2025 calendar-year club goal tally to 58—just one goal shy of Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid record for most club goals in a single calendar year (59 goals in 2013).
According to the schedule, Real Madrid will face Sevilla at home in the next La Liga round, which will be Mbappé's final chance to rewrite the record in 2025.
