Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior received a straight red card for pulling Villarreal's Nathan Saliba's hair during a La Liga match on October 10, leading to a disallowed goal and a narrow 1-0 victory. Vinicius apologized publicly and faces a potential two-to-three match suspension, which could rule him out of the October 25 El Clasico against Barcelona. The incident followed a challenging period for Vinicius, marked by a dip in form and criticism. Real Madrid managed to hold their lead despite playing with 10 men.
