Real Madrid and Elche made six substitutions each this Saturday, a situation that raised many questions. However, there was no error by the referee regarding the 12 substitutions. The reason for this situation occurred in the 23rd minute when Buba Sangaré was substituted by Adriè Pedrosa after suffering a head injury. The concussion protocol was then activated, which grants an extra substitution to the team that loses a player due to a head injury. This automatically allows the opposing team to also benefit from the extra substitution. In fact, it was Real Madrid who exhausted their six substitutions first, and everything was in order with that. It is worth noting that this recent rule also exists in the league, which comes into play after the issuance of a purple card.
