MADRID (Reuters) - Cadiz midfielder Alex Fernandez was finally the happiest member of his footballing family when his side enjoyed a shock 1-0 win over Real Madrid - and older brother Nacho - on Saturday.

Alex, 28, and Nacho, 30, both joined Real Madrid's youth team as teenagers but while Nacho went on to spend his entire, silverware-laden career at Madrid, Alex represented the first team for only 47 minutes, back when Jose Mourinho was in charge.
