Real Madrid lost to Barcelona in gut-wrenching fashion on Saturday night. They actually gave Barcelona a fair fight after the first half, but ultimately fell short and could not beat their eternal rivals in yet another final.

Real Madrid looked good until the end where Luka Modric's pass to Brahim Diaz was intercepted and Jules Kounde scored a great goal to give Barcelona the trophy.

After the match, Antonio Rudiger - who had a brilliant performance - had a severe headloss moment as he started throwing stuff at the referee in a fit of rage, and was really, really furious. It seemed like he wanted to go and hit someone.

He was shown the red card, and was forcefully taken and carried to the changing room after the moment. But he was not the only player who got red carded.

Lucas Vazquez and Jude Bellingham are set to miss time as well as Real Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger

Jude Bellingham and Lucas Vazquez, according to multiple reporters, were also given a red card for their act of anger, and they will now miss the next number of Real Madrid games.

Antonio Rudiger could face a lengthy suspension, but Real Madrid will also be without the services of the other two for at least one game, possibly more.

Rudiger has been reported to face a longer penalty because of what all transpired near enough to the final whistle, but it was actually scary at one point.

Rudiger has had these issues before, but never has he even come close to what happened against Barcelona.

It was clear that he did it in a spite of rage after Eric Garcia tried to get a foul from the referee after Kylian Mbappe barely touched him in his face.

Regardless, Real Madrid could be without their three starting players - even though Vazquez should not be on that list - for a considerable amount of time.
