Mbappe receives red card, Real continues to chase Barca

Mbappe was sent off.

On the evening of April 13, Real Madrid faced numerous difficulties in their away match at Alaves. However, "Los Blancos" still showed the strength of a big team when they dominated the game and scored an early opening goal thanks to Camavinga.

In the 35th minute, the French midfielder made a beautiful shot outside the Alaves penalty area to open the score for the visiting team Real Madrid. In a corner of the stands, coach Ancelotti breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just 3 minutes after Camavinga opened the scoring, his teammate in the French national team, Mbappe, made another mistake. The striker born in 1998 had an extremely dangerous kick on the Alaves player's leg.

The referee initially only showed a yellow card, but after receiving advice and reviewing from VAR, he quickly showed a direct red card to disqualify Mbappe, putting Real Madrid in a difficult position because they were only playing with 10 men.

Having to play with 10 men, Real Madrid quickly lost the game to the home team. Fitness is also a big problem for Real, after they just suffered a 0-3 defeat to Arsenal in the Champions League in the middle of the week, and are facing a great risk of becoming the former champion of the tournament.

However, a strong defense helped Real Madrid maintain their advantage. In the 70th minute, Alaves' Manu Sanchez also received a straight red card after a rough tackle on a Real player.

Both teams received red cards in this match and were reduced to 10 men. This allowed Real Madrid to maintain their defensive position and preserve the score.

In the remaining minutes of the match, although both sides had chances, 1-0 was still the final score. The three hard-won points against Alaves helped Real Madrid narrow the gap with Barcelona to 4 points, thereby keeping their hopes alive in the La Liga championship race.

However, the big worry for Real Madrid is that Mbappe could receive an additional suspension after this red card, meaning he could miss the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona later this month.
