De Burgos Bengoetxea: Real Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger, who could face a lengthy ban after appearing to throw an object towards the referee in a fit of anger during the Copa del Rey final on Sunday, apologised for his behaviour.

In the final stages of Real's 3-2 loss to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final, Rudiger and his Real teammates reacted angrily to a foul given against Kylian Mbappe shortly before the final whistle. Rudiger was so angry at the decision, and he appeared to throw an object towards the referee De Burgos Bengoetxea.

The defender was then shown a red card, as were Vazquez and Bellingham, after the trio attempted to protest. Having been sent off, Rudiger was restrained by his teammates and was prevented from reaching the match official.
