Kylian Mbappé has received his suspension after receiving a straight red card in Real Madrid's 0–1 victory over Alavés.
Real Madrid might have collected all three points against Alavés at the weekend, but it was Mbappé who stole the headlines. The Frenchman was sent off in the 38th minute for a horrible tackle on Alavés midfielder Antonio Blanco and left his team with 10 men for over 50 minutes.
The red card was an easy decision for referee César Soto Grado; Mbappé fully caught Blanco on the shin with his studs up in a late, high and downright dangerous tackle. The superstar forward went down the tunnel without complaint for the first time in his Real Madrid career.
Although Real Madrid managed to still secure a victory in his absence, they now will be without their best goalscorer when they need him most.
