After a VAR analysis, Vinicius received a red card from the referee and had to be restrained by his teammate Antonio Rudiger and a member of staff, after trying to attack the referee.
This may have been fortunate for Vinicius, who faces a minimum two-match suspension for his sending off, according to Relevo. Depending on whether the CTA considers the incident a “
assault » rather than violent conduct, this suspension could last up to four games, and two additional games could be added for his protests, although it is not yet clear whether he will be sanctioned for this reason.
Vini will discover his sanction
The ban he receives will likely not be known until Tuesday, as Monday is a national holiday and Los Blancos may not receive the ban until after their Copa del Rey clash against Deportiva Minera. EnglishThe two-match and four-match suspension could be applied in the Copa, Spanish Super Cup and/or La Liga, which could exclude him from the entire second competition, while the two-match protest is only applicable in Liga.
It is worth noting that Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti said the club would appeal the decision, believing his initial pressure on Dimitrievski had been judged harshly. The next six matches in which Vinicius could serve a suspension are against Deportiva Minera (Cup), RCD Mallorca (Spanish Super Cup, with a potential final to follow), Las Palmas, Real Valladolid, Espanyol and Atlético Madrid (Liga). Between these two matches, Real Madrid will finish their Champions League campaign against RB Salzburg and Brest, although Vinicius will not be suspended for these matches.
