After a second appeal against their expulsion was
rejected, Real Madrid's hopes of staying in the Copa
del Rey look to be over.
Real Madrid have seen their second appeal against expulsion
from the Copa del Rey for fielding an ineligible player rejected by
the Administrative Tribunal for Sport (TAD).
Madrid were kicked out of the competition for playing Denis
Cheryshev in the first leg of their round-of-32 tie with Cadiz. The
Russian - who picked up three bookings in last season's
competition while on loan at Villarreal - started and scored in a
3-1 win for Rafael Benitez's side.
Cadiz complained and Madrid subsequently saw an appeal
against their disqualification turned down by the Royal Spanish
Football Federation (RFEF) on Thursday.
And the TAD has concurred with the RFEF's ruling, meaning
Madrid will not have the opportunity to regain the trophy they
last won in 2014.
