Enzo's goal came in the 63rd minute, just 18 minutes after entering the field. He got the ball on the edge of the penalty area and then fired a low shot past goalkeeper Leandro.
The second leg of the King's Cup round of 32 on the evening of November 30 was the first match that Enzo played for Real's A team. Previously, coach Zinedine Zidane's eldest son had played many matches for the B team and often trained with the A team.
Enzo's goal also made it 4-1 for Real. The Bernabeu team then scored two more goals to end the match with a 6-1 victory. In the end, Real beat third-tier Leonesa 13-2 after two matches.

To keep his squad for this weekend's El Clasico, coach Zidane sent most of the players who had forgotten to sit on the bench and some players selected from the B team. The most prominent names on the list were only Pepe, Casemiro, Isco James and Carvajal.
Besides Enzo, another young player, Mariano Diaz, also shined. This striker wearing the number 18 shirt scored a hat-trick.
17-year-old midfielder Martin Odegaard also played well, creating many chances in the first half. Thanks to that, Mariano soon had a double and James had a goal.
Real will only know their opponents in the round of 16 after a draw. The other 30 teams have now played their first legs in the round of 32. Real have been given priority to play first to give themselves time to prepare for the FIFA Club World Cup.
