Real Madrid's Jese scored on his return after nearly nine months out as the holders eased past third-tier Cornella in the Copa del Rey.

The 21-year-old netted his side's fifth goal, Carlo Ancelotti's side winning 9-1 on aggregate to reach the last 16.

With Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale rested, Colombia international James Rodriguez scored two goals.

Real's other goals at the Bernabeu came from Isco and Borja Lopez's own goal.

Cornella's Xavi Boniquet missed a penalty in the 15th minute after Alvaro Arbeloa fouled him in the area.

Jese scored in the 78th minute, 20 minutes after coming on for his first appearance since having two right knee operations following a leg injury on 18 March.

Real will play either Atletico Madrid or Hospitalet next.
