Real Madrid’s thrilling 2-1 comeback victory against Valencia was marred by an incident involving their star winger, Vinicius Jr.

The Brazilian forward was shown a red card during the match for shoving Valencia goalkeeper Dimitrievski in the face, igniting a fiery response from the player. Vinicius Jr. attempted to challenge the referee’s decision, but was quickly held back by his teammates to avoid further escalation.

In accordance with Article 104 of the RFEF Disciplinary Code, Vinicius Jr. could face a suspension ranging from 4 to 12 matches for his actions. If he receives the maximum penalty, the talented winger would be sidelined for a significant portion of the season, leaving a notable gap in Real Madrid’s attacking lineup.

The club and its fans will now anxiously await the disciplinary committee’s verdict, as Vinicius Jr.’s presence remains crucial for Los Blancos in their pursuit of domestic and European success this season.
