Real Madrid left the RCDE Stadium with three points after a dramatic 2-1 victory over Espanyol, with Jude Bellingham and Carlos Espi getting the goals.
It was a win that marked Jose Mourinho's first official victory as manager since his return to the club, and there were signs of promise.
One incident in particular that caused controversy involved Vinicius Junior and has continued long after the final whistle.
Espanyol used their official social media account to take a thinly disguised swipe at the Brazilian after believing he should have received a second yellow card for simulation.
"After how many dives do you get a second yellow? Asking for a friend," Espanyol posted.
