Real Madrid defender Pepe has said that he is pleased with his side's performance against Barcelona at Camp Nou on Tuesday.
Cristiano Ronaldo's double and a header from Raphael Varane saw the defending Spanish champions win the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final tie 3-1.
"We played a solid game," Pepe told Madrid's official website. "We're really happy and now both the fans and the team should enjoy this important day. If we play as a team, we're hard to beat.
"We started the match well. We had done our homework and we knew that if we scored a goal we would equalise the playoff. The team played well, worked hard and scored three important goals."
A 1-1 draw in the first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu last month meant that Madrid went through to the final 4-2 on aggregate.
