A Real Madrid player was shown a straight red card and six players were booked at the end of El Clasico, the match referee has confirmed in his report.

Real defeated Barcelona 2-1 at the Bernabeu thanks to first half goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham.

Those goals were scored either side of Fermin Lopez's equaliser for the visitors.

Minutes before full-time, a brawl broke out on the two benches in response to Pedri receiving a second yellow card for a foul on Aurelien Tchouameni.

The incident was quickly forgotten about as Vinicius Junior and Lamine Yamal were involved in a heated altercation at full-time.

But after the full-time chaos had calmed down, the referee noted in his match report that he had actually booked six players, and shown a red card to another, as a result of the bench brawl.

According to COPE, Lunin was in fact shown a straight red card for his part in the brawl, while Militao's booking was for 'confronting an opponent without resorting to insults or threats'.

In addition, Rodrygo and Vinicius were booked for the same reason, which was not picked up during the live broadcast.

For Barcelona, Alex Balde and Ferran Torres were also cautioned for the 'confronting an opponent without resorting to insults or threats' offence, while goalscorer Fermin was shown a yellow for 'recklessly pushing an opponent, causing conflict'.

On Lunin's sending off, Grado stated: "For leaving his bench towards the rival bench, in an aggressive attitude, having to be restrained by his own team-mates."

Real have extended their lead to five points ahead of Barca as a result of their win, and have now won four La Liga matches in a row.
