"He shoots, tries to go for the rebound, but on the second play he doesn't let me participate because he knocks me out,"
"For me, it is a foul, but if the referee goes to VAR and says it's not a foul, there's nothing we can do."
"Vinicius doesn't touch the ball, it hits Iñaki Peña in the face . It's a clear foul. Iñaki Peña didn't see the play. Vinicius hits him in the face, that's why his face is like that. It's a clear foul,"
Iñaki Peña was left bloodied after a collision with Vinícius Jr during a rebound that led to Jude Bellingham's equaliser. Álvaro Rodríguez had put Elche ahead 2-1 on 84 minutes before Bellingham struck three minutes later. Peña says the contact prevented him from participating in the second play and regards the incident as a foul, but VAR allowed the goal to stand. Manager Eder Sarabia described the contact as a clear foul and asserted that Vinícius hit Peña in the face. The match finished 2-2, leaving Real Madrid one point above Barcelona atop La Liga.
