๐ Key points
โฝ Madrid won 3-0 at Mestalla on 8 November.
๐จ A multi-player scuffle broke out in the tunnel at half-time.

๐ What happened
โฝ Pablo Maffeo shoved Kylian Mbappe and was booked; the free-kick rebounded off the wall and Federico Valverde scored. After the half-time whistle, Marca reported, Vazquez repeatedly shouted "it's not a foul" at assistant referee Ivan Masso.
๐จ According to Marca, Jude Bellingham grabbed Vazquez's suit to pull him away, and a security guard was hit in the face by Antonio Rudiger's flailing arm. Marca called it a slap and AS a punch. Rudiger was an unused substitute, and Ibrahima Konate reportedly told everyone to calm down.
๐ฎ The match report says National Police officers identified Vazquez, restrained him and removed him. No disciplinary action has been reported so far.
