To the shock of Real Madrid fans, the referee showed only a yellow card for a challenge that could’ve caused a serious injury to the Frenchman.
Here is what they had to say about it:
🗣 “‘How the f*ck it’s not a red, man?”
🗣”The guy tried to end Mbappe’s career with that tackle, and the ref went, ‘Nah, just a yellow.’ Ridiculous.”
🗣 “La Liga refereeing for you…I hate it with my whole heart.”
