Real Madrid rediscovered their sparkle with an emphatic rout of Sevilla in a match that saw Arda Güler take charge, while Madrid fans celebrated Kylian Mbappé’s clinical finishing and Yan Diomandé’s emergence. However, the victory was not without controversy, as Sevilla were left furious with the officiating.
Rounding out the football action are a domestic transfer market stirred by Getafe’s interest in Sergio Ramos, a struggling Arsenal’s resilience in the Premier League, and Nico Paz’s unstoppable form under Cesc Fàbregas in Italy.
Güler transforms Madrid’s midfield
Real Madrid delivered a commanding performance with a 4-1 victory over Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabéu, inspired by a stellar display from Arda Güler. José Mourinho’s side showed a dramatic improvement in their fluidity to set up a comfortable win, sealed by a brilliant Kylian Mbappé brace and another standout goal from youngster Yan Diomandé, establishing the Turkish midfielder as a cornerstone of Madrid’s midfield for the immediate future.
Sevilla lash out at VAR
The defeat left the Sevilla camp deeply aggrieved, with outrage spreading from the dressing room to the press room and the club’s official channels as they left Madrid’s ground. Coach Luis García Plaza and players including Kike Salas and Juan Iglesias openly argued that Güler should have been sent off for a heavy challenge on Peque, directing their criticism squarely at the handling of VAR.
Ángel Torres dreams of Sergio Ramos
On the transfer front, Getafe once again grabbed the headlines after president Ángel Torres surprisingly confirmed in public that Sergio Ramos is among the club’s potential signings. Having already secured Dani Carvajal—who is ready to make his debut immediately—the Coliseum club’s board is seeking another historic, headline-grabbing coup in Spanish football by bolstering its defence with the veteran former Real Madrid centre-back.
Arsenal hold firm in the Premier League
On the international stage, a solitary Noni Madueke goal in the 80th minute spared Arsenal a damaging slip-up away at Nottingham Forest. Mikel Arteta’s side produced a lacklustre display, managing just one shot on target over the ninety minutes, but secured three precious points to remain second in the table, keeping the title race tight at just three points behind Manchester City.
Nico Paz keeps dazzling at Como
Finally, in Italy’s Serie A, Nico Paz once again stole the spotlight with a stellar performance in Como’s 3-1 win away at Fiorentina. The talented Argentine attacker was the standout player for Cesc Fàbregas’s side, scoring again and providing a decisive assist for Anastasios Douvikas, cementing his status as one of the league’s breakout stars and keeping his team’s fine run in the top flight going.
