Real Madrid will have to get past Leganes in the Copa del Rey quarterfinals without Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham. Coming off a shocking 1–0 defeat to Espanyol at the weekend, Real Madrid will be eager to get back to winning ways against Leganes.

Real Madrid have filed a formal complaint to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) asking for the “immediate submission of VAR audio” related to two decisions in their 1-0 defeat by Espanyol. The complaint follows referee Alejandro Muniz Ruiz’s decision to show Espanyol defender Carlos Romero a yellow card for a 60th-minute challenge on Kylian Mbappe as well as a disallowed goal by Vinicius Junior in the 21st minute after a foul by the France forward.

Tradition dictates that teammates sign the match ball after a player scores a hat-trick, and Kylian Mbappé is no exception as Real Madrid stars wrote after his first.

Cristiano Ronaldo believes he could help unlock a new level of Kylian Mbappé's game now that the Frenchman is leading Real Madrid's line.

Carlo Ancelotti said Kylian Mbappe would miss Real Madrid's upcoming Copa del Rey quarter-final against Leganes with a bruised calf and backed his club's complaints about Spanish refereeing on Tuesday.

Kylian Mbappe will likely miss just one game for Real Madrid after suffering a calf hematoma against Espanyol.
