Mbappe received a red card

Real Madrid's victory over Alaves in round 31 of the Spanish Championship (La Liga) witnessed a somewhat violent moment of Mbappe. In the 38th minute, he had a situation where he kicked quite hard on the leg of defender Antonio Blanco.

Initially, the referee only showed a yellow card. But after checking VAR and realizing the seriousness of the foul, he immediately showed Mbappe a red card.

Luckily for Real Madrid, Camavinga had opened the scoring with a beautiful long-range shot in the 34th minute. The 1-0 score remained until the end of the match, helping the Spanish Royal team end a streak of 2 consecutive losses in all competitions.

After the win over Alaves, assistant coach Davide Ancelotti shared: "Mbappe is not a player who likes violence. He clearly understood his mistake and admitted his mistake after that incident. It was a very clear red card and Mbappe had to pay the price."

Since Euro 2024, Gareth Southgate has not returned to coaching. There has been much speculation that this strategist will lead teams playing in the Premier League.

However, according to The Sun, Mr. Gareth Southgate may never return to coaching. According to this newspaper, in the recent documents of MAS Investment Holdings Limited - the company that manages Gareth Southgate's £6.2 million real estate portfolio, his title has changed.

Accordingly, from being a "football coach", this title has been changed to "company director". This partly implies that Gareth Southgate is now focusing on business rather than returning to the coaching chair.

This victory also helped him equal the achievement of compatriot legend Rafael Nadal, when they won 6 ATP 1000 titles before the age of 22. The Monte Carlo Masters championship also helped Alcaraz gain many points and have the opportunity to improve his ranking on the world rankings.
