In the early hours of October 27th, the 262nd El Clásico in history concluded with a 2-1 victory for Real Madrid. Beyond the goals and controversies on the pitch, tension persisted even after the match ended.

At that moment, Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajaj approached Lamine Yamal and said, "You've talked enough. Keep talking." The young Barcelona talent immediately retorted, leading to a scuffle on the pitch.

Many players and coaching staff members tried to separate Carvajaj and Yamal, but others became even more embroiled in the argument.

Vinicius was one of the most prominent figures in this situation. He was the next Real Madrid player to confront Yamal. Vinicius became even more enraged when Yamal arranged to meet him in the dressing room for a "talk".

The Brazilian player then continued to act and gesture angrily towards several other Barca players, including his compatriot Raphinha. It took more than two people to stop Vinicius from rushing into the tunnel to confront the opposing player.

Several players were also involved in altercations after the match, including Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, Adriy Lunin (Real Madrid), Balde, and Ferran Torres (Barcelona). Referee Cesar Soto had to work tirelessly even after the match had ended.

During the match, he issued a red card to goalkeeper Andriy Lunin and six yellow cards to Rodrygo, Vinicius, Eder Militao (Real Madrid) and Fermin Lopez, Alejandro Balde, Ferran Torres (Barcelona).

Despite the tense atmosphere on the field, no fights broke out. The underlying cause of the players' frustration stemmed from Lamine Yamal's controversial statements before the match.

In it, he said Real Madrid "stole and then cried foul." The 18-year-old star also posted images and videos on social media mocking the Spanish royal club.

Therefore, when Yamal underperformed in El Clásico, he immediately became a target of attack from the Real Madrid players.
