Real Madrid's Karim Benzema scored a hat-trick at the Camp Nou to help demolish Barcelona 4-0 in the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final. The 35-year-old forward scored two early goals in the second half, including a penalty, after Vinicius Junior's opener in the first half. He completed his hat-trick with a goal 10 minutes before the end of the game, matching the achievement of Real Madrid legend Ferenc Puskas, who accomplished the feat in 1963. According to Spanish broadcaster MisterChip, only 11 players in history have scored a hat-trick at Barcelona's home ground, making it a challenging feat to achieve. The most recent was Kylian Mbappe's hat-trick in 2021 when Paris Saint-Germain beat Barcelona 4-1 away in the Champions League.
