The match of the tenth round of La Liga 2025/26 between Real Madrid and Barcelona took place on October 26 at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid. The match ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of the royal club.

At first, the head referee Cesar Soto Grado showed Luna a yellow card, but in the final protocol it was indicated a red. The reason for this decision was the Ukrainian’s emotional intervention in the fight that arose after the removal of the Barcelona midfielder Pedri at the end of the compensated time.

Lunin has so far not made a single appearance for Real this season, remaining as Thibaut Courtois’ back-up.

After today’s victory, Real Madrid strengthened their lead in the Primera Division standings with 27 points after ten rounds. Barcelona is second with 22 points.

In the next round, Real Madrid will meet with Valencia on November 1.
