Real Madrid were lucky to get a win after losing a key player in the first half. This is my first time seeing Kylian Mbappe acting stupid like this. As a result, Mbappe will most likely be suspended for the next 2 weeks which means he may not be eligible to play in the second leg of the Champions League against Arsenal in Santiago Bernabeu.
Mbappe only has himself to blame for getting sent off. I don't think that dangerous tackle was intentional, but there was no need for such play as the action was in the middle of the field and taking over possession of the ball was not crucial. Because of him, Real was disadvantaged for around half an hour.
I don't think I agree with the red card for the Alaves player, Manu Sanchez, but I understand the referee's decision. It was a foul, and, if not for it, Vinicious could find himself in a one-on-one situation against the goalkeeper.
They went through a real struggle, but a win is a win and 3 points is what they were desperate for to not fall too far behind Barcelona.
Alaves is not a strong team this season, even their position in the current standings is very close to the relegation zone. However, even so, Real Madrid had to fight hard to be able to win 3 full points from Alaves, even having to get a red card. and indeed mbapee deserved to get a red card because the violation he committed could have been fatal.
In 90 minutes of normal time I watched the match, and Real Madrid really played quite badly, because apart from Real Madrid having to lose in terms of ball possession, in terms of attack it was the same, where Real Madrid was only able to launch 11 attempts with 4 shots on target while Alaves had more than that. Luckily Camavinga managed to score a single goal in the match so that the victory remained with Real Madrid.
