In a dramatic LaLiga match, Real Madrid secured a 3-2 victory over Deportivo Alavés, but the game was marred by controversy surrounding young striker Endrick, who avoided a red card for an off-the-ball incident involving defender Santiago Mouriño. Endrick received a yellow card after striking Mouriño with his knee, leading Alavés coach Luis Garcia Plaza to vehemently argue that it should have been a red card, which would have changed the game dynamics. He expressed disbelief that the VAR did not intervene, stating, 'It's a clear red, nobody can say it wasn't.' Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti declined to comment on the incident, stating he hadn't seen it. Despite the controversy, Madrid continued their winning streak, with goals from Lucas Vázquez, Kylian Mbappé, and Rodrygo. The match ended with a tense finish as Alavés scored twice in the final minutes, intensifying the debate over the officiating.
