Sports News] In the previous Spanish Super Cup semi-finals, Real Madrid emerged
victorious with a 5-3 win over Atletico Madrid after overtime. However, a
particular incident during the Madrid derby sparked discussions among fans. It
involved Antonio Rudiger allegedly pinching Alvaro Morata’s nipples. Video
footage from the broadcast showed Rudiger smiling while pinching Morata’s
nipple with his right hand. Morata, who was about to approach the referee to
argue something, felt the pinch and turned around to push Rudiger away. Since
the referee did not witness the incident, Rudiger escaped a yellow card. It’s
worth noting that Morata and Rudiger had previously played together at Chelsea,
so Morata may not have taken the incident too seriously. Although the referee
missed Rudiger’s actions, those who watched the live broadcast of the game were
left with a lasting impression.
