SEVILLE, Spain (Reuters) -Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti was devastated as he felt his side should have taken more from Saturday's 3-2 loss in the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona where they conceded a late equaliser that led the game to extra-time, when their bitter rivals roared back to score a winner through Jules Kounde.

Real fought their way back into the game after being 1-0 down at halftime but saw Barca forward Ferran Torres snatch a goal in a counter attack in the 84th minute that gave the Catalan giants new life.
