The match began with intense incidents in the first 15 minutes, involving Ronald Araújo and Endrick, future rivals for Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga.
It all started when Ronald confronted Endrick in an early play, looking to assert dominance. He sought out Endrick in the next move, even when the ball wasn't in play, causing the Brazilian to fall to the ground. This was just the beginning.
The intensity peaked around the 15-minute mark. During a counterattack, Endrick advanced and waited for Valverde, who bypassed him. Endrick, somewhat theatrically, threw himself to the ground. However, Araújo wasn't done. During a corner, he pushed Endrick again, this time more forcefully with his shoulder, escalating the situation further.
The confrontation intensified when Raphinha, Araújo's teammate at Barça, intervened, siding with Endrick against Araújo. This led to a brawl on the field, with players from both teams getting involved.
