Real Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger has been given a six-match ban for throwing an object at the referee during their Copa del Rey final loss to Barcelona.

Rudiger and Real team-mate Lucas Vazquez, who had both been substituted, were shown straight red cards for angrily reacting to a foul given against Kylian Mbappe shortly before the final whistle.

Referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea said in his report that centre-back Rudiger, 32, was dismissed for “throwing an object from the technical area, which missed me”.

BBC Sport columnist Guillem Balague reported that Rudiger threw an ice cube at the official, external.

The report by the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) said the Germany defender had been given a six-game suspension “for minor violence against the referees”.

Vazquez has been suspended for two games.
