It has now been officially confirmed that Real Madrid will be without one of their most important players for the rest of the season, with the Spanish Football Federation having ruled on the fiery scenes that occurred during the final stages of last weekend’s Copa del Rey final at La Cartuja.
The Real Madrid dugout were furious at referee Ricardo De Burgos Bengoetxea’s decision to call a foul against Kylian Mbappe in the final minute of extra time, and that ultimately led to three players being sent off. Antonio Rudiger tried to approach the official in an aggressive manner, and that led to him being at risk of anextended suspension.
