Real Madrid lost 2-3 to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final that took place in the early morning of April 27. Not only did they lose, Real Madrid was also heavily criticized for their "aggressive" actions before, during and after the final.

Specifically, before the match, Real Madrid threatened to quit the match because they thought the referee had a "hostile" attitude towards them. During the match, many members of Real Madrid also continuously reacted strongly to the referee.

After the final whistle, defender Dani Carvajal cursed, Antonio Rudiger threw objects at the referee, and other players attacked the referee on social media. Those actions of Real Madrid were too extreme because in fact referee De Burgos Bengoetxea had been quite good in the final of the Spanish King's Cup.

In his analysis, journalist Antoine Simonneau pointed out that: "Real Madrid's behavior in the Copa del Rey final reflected a worrying chaos, they acted "as if they were above all rules" and betrayed the values ​​of respect and sportsmanship that they have always proclaimed".

"Real Madrid are like a temperamental child who cannot stand disappointment. The over-exuberance of Lucas Vazquez, Bellingham and Rudiger is the culmination of the resentment, frustration and helplessness that has enveloped Real Madrid this season," he added.

According to Simonneau, the crisis Real Madrid is going through is not only sporting but also moral. He warned that, without a deep self-criticism, the club could slip further away from its historical greatness.
