Real Madrid's 2-0 victory over Villarreal was overshadowed by serious injuries to two key players, Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr. Carvajal suffered a severe knee injury late in the match, requiring him to be stretchered off in tears, prompting manager Carlo Ancelotti to confirm the injury's seriousness and the need for further medical tests. Vinicius Jr. also left the pitch due to shoulder discomfort after scoring, with his condition pending evaluation. Ancelotti expressed concern for both players, emphasizing Carvajal's importance to the team and the emotional impact of the injuries on the squad. As the team prepares for the upcoming international break, they will rely on Lucas Vázquez to fill Carvajal's role, while the full extent of the injuries remains uncertain.
