Real Madrid lost to Valencia 1-0 in La Liga on Sunday, marking their 4th straight away defeat in all competitions, including their brutally painful departure from the Champions League semi-final at the expense of Manchester City. Just after the halfway point, Diego Lopez scored the game’s only goal, but the Mestalla match was derailed by alleged racist taunts directed at Vinicius Junior. The game was put on hold for 10 minutes in the second half prior to Vinicius seeing a red card in the closing moments after a brawl with the opponents. He got a three-game ban because of the red card, which means his season is already over. Carlo Ancelotti’s primary goal is to achieve 2nd place in La Liga with 3 games left and no other tournaments to concentrate on for the Copa del Rey champions. The next two games are against Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao after Wednesday’s match against Rayo Vallecano.
