Mbappe receives a red card, Real Madrid continues to chase Barcelona.

A flurry of yellow cards occurred during Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Alaves in La Liga's 31st round.

Mbappe was sent off.

On the evening of April 13th, Real Madrid faced numerous difficulties in their away match against Alaves. However, "Los Blancos" still demonstrated the strength of a big team by controlling the game and scoring an early opening goal thanks to Camavinga.

In the 35th minute, the French midfielder unleashed a spectacular shot from outside the Alaves penalty area to open the scoring for visiting Real Madrid. In a corner of the stands, coach Ancelotti breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just three minutes after Camavinga opened the scoring, his French teammate, Mbappe, made a mistake. The 1998-born striker committed a very dangerous foul on an Alaves player's leg.

Mbappe's malicious tackle.

The referee initially only issued a yellow card, but after consulting with and reviewing VAR, he quickly showed Mbappe a direct red card, sending him off and leaving Real Madrid in a difficult position as they were down to 10 men.

Playing with only 10 men, Real Madrid quickly lost control of the game to the home team. Fitness was also a major issue for Real, after their 0-3 defeat to Arsenal in the Champions League earlier in the week, and facing a very high risk of losing their title.

However, Real Madrid's resilient defense helped them maintain their advantage. In the 70th minute, Manu Sanchez of Alaves also received a direct red card after a rough tackle on a Real Madrid player.

Manu Sanchez also received a red card after kicking Vinicius Jr. in the leg.

Both teams received red cards in this match and were left playing with only 10 men. This gave Real Madrid more freedom to maintain their defensive game and preserve the scoreline.

In the remaining minutes of the match, although both sides had opportunities, the final score remained 1-0. The hard-fought three points against Alaves helped Real Madrid narrow the gap with Barcelona to 4 points, thus keeping their hopes alive in the La Liga title race.

However, Real Madrid's biggest worry is that Mbappe could receive an additional suspension after his red card in this match, meaning he might miss the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona later this month.
