Real Madrid is still faltering from their defeat to Espanyol on Saturday evening, who saw the gorge at the top of La Liga near a lonely point. In particular, the ruling champions are furious about the decision not to send Carlos Romero in the second half, especially because it was that the winning goal scored for Los Pericos.
In the hour Mark in the Podium Premature Stadium, Romero Kylian Mbappe tried to stop racing the ball, and with that he caught the Real Madrid attacker very high. He was shown a yellow card from referee Alejandro Muniz Ruiz on the field, and the decision was supported by Var Official Javier Iglesias Villanueva, to the great annoyance of Los Blancos.
After the game, Carlo Ancelotti called the decision “inexplicable”, and now Mbappe has responded to the issue, albeit without any words. Dazn took the French attacker when he walked through the interview zone after the game in Barcelona.
Although Ancelotti and Real Madrid TV had a lot to say about the incident, Mbappe chose not to do this, but his actions can be seen as louder than any words.
There is no doubt that Real Madrid was left furiously with the decision not to send Romero, and that anger would probably have increased when reading the referee report from Muniz Ruiz. They felt very hard on Saturday – not only with his incident, but also the not – accessible goal of Vinicius Junior in the first half, in which Mbappe was also involved.
However, there is not much that Real Madrid can do now, and they have to be careful. They compete against Leganes in their Copa del Rey quarterfinals draw on Wednesday, for a crucial La Liga fixture against Atletico Madrid in the Santiago Bernabeu next weekend.
