Real Madrid survived a scare at the Santiago Bernanbeu to book a place in the Copa del Rey final against Atletico Madrid or Barcelona.
Real Sociedad beat Real Madrid 4-3 in regular time to force extra time, as they suffered a 1-0 defeat in the first-leg. Rudiger scored the only goal in extra time, which helped Los Blancos win the match and advance to the final.
La Reale struck early through Ander Barrene, but Real Madrid responded with Endrick. The visitors opened a two-goal margin in the second half, but Madrid equalised.
A 3-3 result at full-time would have ensured the hosts went through, but Mikel Oyazarbal scored a winner for Imanol Alguacil's side to force extra-time. Rudiger scored a header in extra-time to confirm Real Madrid's place in the final.
