Maka: Kavajal s head Ruli was sent off with a red card and may face more than one game of ban

According to Marca, Kavajal was sent off with a red card against Marseille for Ruli, and he could face more than one game of ban.

Cavajal replaced the injured Arnold in the 5th minute of the game. Arnold requested a substitution due to a muscle strain on the back of the thigh and received treatment from the medical team. Carvajal then took over the right back position until the middle of the second half. At that time, the score was 1-1, but Carvajal staged the ugliest scene in the return of the Champions League at the Bernabeu.

In a tense confrontation, Kavajal clashed with the opponent's goalkeeper Ruli and hit the opponent with his head. The Argentine goalkeeper fell to the ground in pain. After referee Perto looked back through VAR, he decisively showed Carvajal a direct red card and sentenced him to attack.

Under Article 15.1e) of the 2024 edition of the UEFA Discipline Ordinance: "Actions against other players or any person present will be subject to three bans or suspensions for a specific time." Therefore, Kavajal may face more than one ban.

In this case, Alonso must find temporary solutions to fill the gaps brought about by the absence of Carvajal and Trent. Ironically, the right-back position is the most reassuring part of the new season, because the team has two top players in charge.
