Real Madrid's recent big match against visiting RC Espanyol at the Bernabéu, which ended 2-0 in favor of the Whites, was their first match in La Liga after the important 2-1 victory over their French visitors, Olympique de Marseille.

That Champions League match saw captain Daniel Carvajal receive a red card following a clash with the Olympique de Marseille goalkeeper. Which will make him miss the next match, which will increase the problems with Xabi Alonso, who lost Trent Alexander-Arnold due to an injury that will keep him out for many months.

Carvajal apologizes to Real Madrid fans for the red card he received

A sense of pride and personal accountability colored Dani Carvajal's recent conversation with Marca. The seasoned Real Madrid defender didn't just celebrate the positive result; he took a moment to shine a light on the collective effort, praising the team's overall performance as a source of deep satisfaction.

However, his thoughts were also drawn to a moment he regrets. With earnest sincerity, Carvajal turned the interview into a platform for a public apology, addressing the red card that marred his previous Champions League outing against Marseille. "I feel the need to say I'm sorry for what occurred," he stated.

"An incident like that is unbefitting of such a prestigious stage and contradicts my own personal standards as a player. I can assure everyone it will not be repeated." He was quick to redirect praise to his teammates, adding, "My gratitude goes to the entire squad, who left every ounce of effort on the pitch. Their resilience is what ultimately secured our victory."

This moment of contrition comes at a critical juncture for the club. The defensive lineup faces a significant strain with the news that Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to be sidelined for a minimum of six weeks. This injury suddenly catapults Carvajal back into his familiar role as the undisputed cornerstone of the right flank, making his presence and experience more vital than ever for Los Blancos
