Hupu reported on October 27th that in this round of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 at home, and the Spanish media "World Sports News" also reported several controversial penalties in this game.

Before Bellingham scored, Huizen elbowed him.

The referee did not punish the Real Madrid defender for fouling Kubasi, and VAR did not intervene. On the eve of Bellingham's goal, Huizen elbowed the Barcelona center defender in the mouth, causing him to fall to the ground. Neither the referee on duty nor VAR determined that the foul was enough to cancel the goal.

Carvajal pushed Araujo and no penalty was awarded.

In the 92nd minute, Barcelona midfielder Casado made a pass. Carvajal pushed Araujo from behind, causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground. The referee signaled "reasonable collision" and no foul was ruled, and VAR chose to remain silent this time.

In addition, "World Sports" also said that regarding the conflict that broke out between players from the two teams after the game, referee Grado paid close attention to the two melees that broke out in succession at the Bernabeu Stadium. The first conflict broke out in the bench area - after Pedri fouled Chuameni and received a second yellow card in the 90th minute. Although the whole incident could not be clearly captured, it was determined that the instigator was Vinicius, who suddenly shouted in the direction of the Barcelona bench.

The storm has not subsided. After the final whistle, Carvajal and Courtois went straight to Yamal and accused him of being too arrogant in his pre-match remarks. The youngster had to be escorted off the field by his teammates. Vinicius undoubtedly escalated the situation - he stepped forward to join the confrontation and broke into a verbal altercation with the Barcelona players.

During the melee, Lu Ning's red card incident was almost ignored, but it was still recorded in Soto Grado's game report: "In the 90th minute, Real Madrid player No. 13 Lu Ning was ejected for leaving his own bench and rushing towards the opponent's bench area with an aggressive attitude (which needed to be blocked by his teammates)." The number of games he has been banned from has yet to be confirmed.

This referee report also revealed another data - for the melee in the 90th minute, a total of 6 yellow cards were issued by both sides: Real Madrid's Militao, Rodrygo, and Vinicius were punished; Barcelona's Liyad, Balde, and Ferran Torres also received yellow cards.
