Espi winner rescues Real Madrid after Elche comeback
- On Tuesday, Real Madrid stars Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Ibrahima Konate obscured 'Todos somos caballas' solidarity shirts before their LaLiga match at Elche, drawing public criticism in Spain.
- The Valencian Business Association organized the solidarity campaign supporting Ceuta residents after at least 72,000 migrants crossed the border July 30-31, sparking widespread support across Spain.
- While teammates wore the shirts fully, the trio rolled theirs to chest height, obscuring the message; Real Madrid later defended the players' individual freedom to choose their public stance.
- The incident sparked backlash in Spain, echoing recent social media threats against Real Betis winger Abdessamad Ezzalzouli, who faced criticism after wearing the same shirt last Monday.
- This gesture reflects broader tensions surrounding migration and political sensitivity in Spain, where the country manages complex diplomatic relations with Morocco amid intense national debate over immigration policy.
