Marca revealed that the referee for the Real Madrid-Barcelona El Clásico, Grado Soto, issued several yellow cards to Real Madrid players at the end of the match, and also showed his own red card to one of the club’s stars.
Several altercations occurred immediately after the final whistle between Real Madrid and Barcelona players, specifically Lamine Yamal, due to his provocative comments against Los Blancos last week.
According to the report, Vinicius Junior and Eder Militao received yellow cards, but neither will miss Real Madrid’s next match against Valencia, scheduled for next Saturday.
However, the surprise was that substitute goalkeeper Andriy Lunin received a red card due to these altercations, even though the camera did not capture any of his involvement in the various conversations with Lamine Yamal.
Real Madrid’s management is expected to appeal the Ukrainian goalkeeper’s red card, but as usual, the Spanish Football Federation will most likely not accept it, meaning the player will not be on the bench for the upcoming match against Los Che.
