Barcelona star Lamine Yamal sparked a scuffle in the aftermath of his side's defeat to rivals Real Madrid in their LaLiga encounter. The reigning champions fell to a 2-1 defeat in the highly-charged encounter, losing their third game in five outings across all competitions. Lamine Yamal accused Real Madrid of corruption and being favoured by the referees in the build-up to the game, contributing to a tense atmosphere. His comments caught the attention of Los Blancos captain Dani Carvajal, who promised to address the youngster about his utterances after El Clasico. An initial scuffle took place before the final whistle after Pedri was shown a second yellow card for a foul on Aurelien Tchouameni. Players from both benches appeared to take aim at each other, with the likes of Raphinha and Antonio Rudiger, who are injured, also joining in on the sidelines. Carvajal appeared to speak with the 18-year-old to guard his speech after the final whistle at the Santiago Bernabeu before Eduardo Camavinga appeared on the scene to shepherd Yamal away. The action brought several other players from both sides to the site of the confrontation, leading to a full-blown scuffle. Lamine Yamal was led away from the pitch by one of the stewards but continued to exchange words with Vinicius Jr. Incensed, the Real Madrid man appeared to charge towards his Barcelona counterpart before being held back as Yamal disappeared down the tunnel. Xabi Alonso's players returned to the pitch afterwards to celebrate their win, which put them five points clear at the summit of the standings.
