The Clasico for the Copa del Rey final was ultimately won by Barcelona in extra time, concluding a match filled with numerous incidents and dramatic turns. However, towards the end, Real Madrid not only lost the game but also lost their composure, protesting excessively vehemently towards the referee.
This resulted in three players from Carlo Ancelotti`s squad being sent off. The red cards for protest were shown to Lucas Vasquez, Jude Bellingham, and Antonio Rudiger. However, the player potentially facing the most severe consequences is the former defender for Roma and Chelsea.
Rudiger evidently lost control after a referee`s whistle went in Barcelona`s favour. He was seen throwing an object, reportedly an ice pack, in the direction of the match official, who promptly showed him the red card. Teammates attempted to restrain Rudiger during the incident to prevent further escalation. The German defender for the Blancos now risks a significant suspension.
