- The referee’s report detailed Endrick’s dismissal and a post-match tunnel incident involving Dani Carvajal, while Xabi Alonso said the officiating “made us crazy.”
- Spanish TV reports described a heated dressing room dispute over whether to blame refereeing, with accounts that Alonso did not enter the locker room immediately after the game.
- Club medical staff diagnosed Militão with a rupture of the left biceps femoris with proximal tendon involvement, and the injury compounds absences across the back line including Dean Huijsen, David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Ferland Mendy ahead of Manchester City.
