reported on July 8 that Real Madrid's appeal was rejected and many players were punished by UEFA.

On Monday, UEFA rejected Real Madrid's appeal against penalties by Rudiger, Mbappe and Sebasso. The penalties stem from their misconduct in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Atletico Madrid, which was held in March this year.

In addition, UEFA has confirmed the fine for Real Madrid for fans' actions in London against Arsenal. Rudiger, Mbappe and Sebas are fined 40,000 euros, 30,000 euros and 20,000 euros respectively for their "violation of the basic code of conduct", which is in accordance with Article 11.2.b of the UEFA Discipline Ordinance.

These penalties were made after Atletico Madrid complaints, citing inappropriate gestures by the players after the European derby. Rudiger was punished for touching his neck with his hand, Mbappe was punished for making provocative gestures to fans in the stands, and Sebalus was also punished for similar behavior.

In addition to the fine, Rudiger and Mbappe were also banned from a UEFA event, but this penalty will be suspended within one year and will only take effect if the violation is again. UEFA stated in its resolution that there was no reason to revoke the decision made by the Committee on Control, Ethics and Discipline on April 4, and clearly stated: "The appeal filed by Real Madrid Club was rejected. Therefore, the committee's decision was confirmed."

On the other hand, although Vinicius was also criticized by opposing fans, UEFA did not initiate the punishment process against him. The same committee also confirmed additional penalties for a fan who had racial discrimination in a away game against Arsenal on April 8. Under Article 14.2 of the UEFA Discipline Ordinance, this act is considered racist. As a result, Real Madrid was fined 15,000 euros and was banned from selling tickets to fans in the next UEFA away game. However, the penalty was also suspended for one year and will only be executed if the rules are violated again.
