Real Madrid contests the red card issued to defender Dean Haussen during their match against Real Sociedad at Anoeta Stadium. Referee Gil Manzano dismissed the player after 32 minutes of Spanish league action. The club maintains strong confidence that officials will overturn the controversial decision. Club representatives argue that Eder Militao provided adequate defensive coverage during the incident. They further contend that neither goal distance nor ball trajectory created a genuine scoring chance.
The appeals committee received substantial support when referees acknowledged their mistake in the original ruling. Officials removed referee Figueroa Vázquez from future assignments after he failed to request a video review of the contentious moment. This administrative action validates Madrid's position regarding the incorrect dismissal. The Spanish giants expect Haussen will return to action against Espanyol following successful appeal proceedings. League authorities must render their final verdict before the upcoming fixture.
