Enzo Zidane scores on Real Madrid debut

Real Madrid eased into the next round of the Copa del Rey with a 6-1 win (13-2 on aggregate) win over Cultural Leonesa as Enzo Zidane scored on his debut for the club.

The 21-year-old was introduced in the second half and took just a matter of minutes to find the net with his father and club manager Zinedine Zidane watching from the touchline. There was also a first senior start for Martin Odegaard, with Mariano Diaz bagging a hat-trick on a rare start.

James Rodriguez and Isco started, with Casemiro also playing the full 90 minutes as Zidane tested his fitness ahead of the weekend’s crunch Clasico clash against Barcelona. The Brazilian lasted and will stand a chance of making the game.

This was a straightforward test for Real Madrid on the whole, but nonetheless their young players demonstrated that they can handle the pressure of competitive action. This surely won’t be the last we see of both Enzo Zidane and Odegaard.

Is Enzo Zidane Real Madrid’s next star in waiting? There was plenty for the fans leaving the Santiago Bernabeu to discuss after full time, but Enzo Zidane grabbed the headlines for himself by scoring just minutes after coming on for his Real Madrid debut. The 21-year-old impressed in the second half, with Martin Odegaard also showing glimpses of his ability on his senior debut for the club. So does Enzo stand any chance of emulating his father? On this basis it’s unlikely, but not impossible.

Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid) - The full back was given the freedom of the right wing throughout the game and he made the most of it. Dani Carvajal was the star man for Real Madrid as one of the few experienced figures in their starting lineup, putting on two assists for Mariano. He only lasted until half time as Zidane looked to rest him ahead of the Clasico, but he’d already made an impact by then.
