    That's your lot, folks!

    A brilliant Copa del Rey final, far more competitive than many anticipated but Real Madrid - as they so often do - come out on top.

    Rodrygo scored both goals, he was the match-winner - although Dani Carvajal played his part with a crucial last-ditch saving tackle in injury time to preserve the lead.

    Osasuna gave it their all, Lucas Torro scored a wonderful goal but they came up just short.

    Slightly more enthusiasm from Benzema when he rejoins his team-mates on the pitch for a second trophy lift.

    Queen's 'We Are The Champions' blares out and Carlo Ancelotti awkwardly shuffles away to let the players have their moment.

    All very low key from Karim Benzema as he lifts the trophy. I guess he's won so many now that he doesn't feel the need to make a big thing of it!

    It is despair for Osasuna but they were excellent tonight and get a hero's welcome from the fans as they go over to show their appreciation.

    It looks like it was fairly lively back in Pamplona too!

    Nine years on from their last triumph, Real Madrid have won the Copa del Rey for a 20th time.

    FT: Real Madrid 2-1 Osasuna

    Former Real Madrid striker Michael Owen on BT Sport: "Osasuna can hold their heads up high and second half I thought they were the better side.

    "Real Madrid probably deserved to be at least a goal or two ahead at half-time but Osasuna came out fighting and gave them a real fright."

    Real Madrid have done it! A truly magnificent final, Osasuna pushed them all the way but Carlo Ancelotti's team have won it.

    Two goals from Rodrygo deliver a 20th Copa del Rey title for Los Blancos!

    Real Madrid 2-1 Osasuna

    A match-winning challenge from Dani Carvajal!

    Osasuna looked certain to equalise as the ball was put across goal, Kike Barja looked to have a tap in but Carvajal stretches out a leg to take the ball off his toe.

    Incredible defensive work and that might do it for Real Madrid.

    Real Madrid are showing all their experience now. Keeping the ball and making Osasuna chase them.

  12. INJURY TIMEpublished at 90 mins

    Real Madrid 2-1 Osasuna

    We've got five added minutes. Still time for Osasuna but they should really be out of it.

    Vinicius Jnr is sent clean through but, for some reason, he tries to pass it to Karim Benzema.

    The striker is someway back, though, and the pass is under-hit. Sergio Herrera is able to pounce on it and Osasuna live to fight another day.

    Before the free-kick is taken, Real Madrid are sending on Marco Asensio.

    Rodrygo is the man going off and receives a huge ovation from the Madrid fans. As it stands, his two goals are enough to win it.

    Time is running out for Osasuna but they have a free-kick in Real Madrid's half.

    With Kike Garcia on they have a proper target to aim for.

    Double change for Osasuna. Goal-scorer Lucas Torro is one of those heading off and the hero from the semi-final, Pablo Ibanez, is on.

    Kike Garcia is also on.

    Decent chance for Antonio Rudiger from Rodrygo's cross but he sends the header over the bar.

    Fantastic skill from Vinicius Jnr. He's been brilliant tonight and - with Real Madrid in front - he's enjoying himself out there.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 83 mins

    Real Madrid 2-1 Osasuna

    Nice play down the left from Osasuna but Ezequiel Avila's ball in is too close to Thibaut Courtois.

    Kike Barja is booked a few seconds later as he punches the ball in frustration when a free-kick goes against him.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 81 mins

    Real Madrid 2-1 Osasuna

    Thibaut Courtois kicks into touch under pressure from two Osasuna players.

    That allows Real Madrid to introduce Luka Modric in place of Toni Kroos.

    Osasuna are furious as a free-kick is given against Lucas Torro for a strong tackle on Fede Valverde.

    Borderline decision but it goes the way of Carlo Ancelotti's men.
