Overview

• Referee Jesús Gil Manzano sent off Dean Huijsen around the half-hour for hauling back Mikel Oyarzabal on a last-man call despite Éder Militão being nearby, according to La Vanguardia.
• VAR official Figueroa Vázquez did not invite an on-field review, a choice critics said was questionable for a grey incident.
• Real Madrid TV and pundits condemned the decision, and a former referee argued the official should have been shown an overhead angle.
• Real Madrid won at Anoeta with first-half goals from Kylian Mbappé and Arda Güler, while Mikel Oyarzabal converted a second-half penalty after a Dani Carvajal handball.
• Xabi Alonso received a yellow card for protests, and reporting in Spain noted Huijsen already has two direct reds in nine Madrid appearances.
