A significant controversy erupted early in Real Madrid's league debut against Espanyol, centering once again on star forward Vinicius. The Brazilian received a kick from behind by Espanyol defender Cala while on the ground, an incident that sparked immediate protests from the Real Madrid bench and players.
Despite the clear foul, the referee chose not to issue a card to Cala, a decision that further fueled the team's discontent. The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) also did not intervene, deeming the action not worthy of review or a stronger sanction.
This lack of disciplinary action left Real Madrid feeling aggrieved, believing the foul warranted at least a yellow card. The debate extended beyond the pitch, as Vinicius himself later reacted ironically on social media to a video of the incident, sharing content that summarized his frustration with the situation.
