Vinicius Junior has goal overturned and sent off in La Liga match

Vinicius Junior was involved in a controversial incident during Real Madrid's match against Villarreal on October 7. Initially believing he had scored to double Madrid's lead at 1-0, a VAR review resulted in the disallowance of the goal and his subsequent red card for pulling Nathan Saliba's hair. This follows a lackluster start to the season for the winger, who has only one goal in nine games. Depending on the length of his ban, he might miss upcoming domestic matches but remains eligible for Champions League fixtures. Real Madrid will face AS Roma and RB Leipzig in the coming weeks.
