The 'Alcorconazo' seven years later



In Manuel Pellegrini's first Copa del Rey match in charge, Real Madrid visited the outskirts of the city to face Alcorcon, who would go on to stun Los Blancos, and the world of football, with a 4-0 victory at the Estadio Santo Domingo.
Borja Perez's brace led the way for Alcorcon, while he also opened the scoring, with his side cruising to a 3-0 half-time lead.
It wasn't the first time, however, that Perez made himself a nuisance against his richer neighbors, as that was his sixth goal against Real in cup competition.A brace of his back when he was still at Leganes forced extra-time in 2003/04 and a goal in each of the two legs when playing for Alicante in 2007/08 meant Los Blancos should have known quite well who to mark on that occasion.Real Madrid on Wednesday night, the LaLiga giants departed the Estadio Reino de Leon with rubbish all over the place.
Leaving the Segunda B side's staff to clean up their mess; a number of bottles, cans, banana peels, and plasters were left abandoned across the dressing room.
That prompted a worker to upload a video of what Real left behind, ahead of their Copa del Rey second leg on November 30.
