The smoke of El Clásico has gradually dissipated, but the controversial topics generated during the game are still continuing to heat up. A few days ago, Dutch star Gullit talked about Pedri's foul in the midfielder when he pulled to stop the attacking Vinicius in the "Ziggo Sport" program. Gullit said Pedri should have been sent off with a direct red card and even called for changes to football rules.

■The referee only showed a yellow card to Pedri, but Gullit thought the penalty was too light.

Gullit said: "I think this should be a direct red card. This is intentional. This is an act that damages the game and should not occur. Now he only received a yellow card, but I think in this case, deliberately preventing the opponent from attacking should be given a red card."

■Gullit admitted that Pedri's behavior was a "tactical foul", but still insisted that he should be punished more severely.

Gullit said: "This is a rule issue worth revisiting. I think this foul is close to the level of a red card. He killed the opponent's opportunity, and Real Madrid did not gain any benefit from it. The yellow card does not matter to Pedri at all."

In the end, Pedri received a second yellow card in stoppage time and was sent off. Real Madrid won the game 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu.
