Jules Kounde lashed in an extra-time screamer as Barcelona beat Real Madrid to win the Copa del Rey in a remarkable Clasico in Seville.
After a 2-2 draw in 90 minutes and with penalties appearing inevitable, the Barcelona defender got the ball 22 yards out and drilled a fine effort into the bottom corner.
Barca were by far the better side in the first half and led through Pedri's fantastic first-time strike from outside the box after Lamine Yamal's cut-back.
Real improved dramatically in the second half after Kylian Mbappe came on, and he curled a free-kick which he had won into the bottom corner via the inside of the post.
Aurelien Tchouameni then headed Real ahead from Arda Guler's corner.
But Barcelona levelled when Ferran Torres ran onto Yamal's long ball and rounded goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois before slotting in.
Hansi Flick's side thought they had a chance to win it in injury time when they were awarded a penalty for a Raul Asencio tackle on Raphinha but the decision was overturned after a long video assistant referee check.
And so to extra time the game went, with Kounde's fourth goal of the season the difference.
And at the end of a game for which the build-up had been dominated by referees, Antonio Rudiger was shown a straight red card from the Real bench.
That was the last meaningful act of a first Clasico final in a major tournament since 2014, when Gareth Bale scored a fantastic late winner for Real in a 2-1 victory.

No worries Guys, always Hala Madrid, Boys gave there best but Barca has got this year no doubt they are going for treble, as a football fan we should congratulate them and move on, we will come back stronger next year, it's all right guys, I believe once we have our new coach we will play better football and I knew from the starting that Flick doesn't lose finals, so as a football fan congratulations to him and his win, Hala Madrid either we win, lose or draw.

The summary of this game is, Real Madrid came back and went back while Barcelona went back and came back. Congratulations Barcelona, even though I wanted Real Madrid to win but, wishes don't usually come true in life
