What happened. Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Ibrahima Konate rolled up their pre-game T-shirts to obscure the message of support for the people of Ceuta ahead of Real Madrid's match at Elche on Tuesday. The shirts carried the slogan 'Todos somos caballas' - 'We are all Ceutans'.
- Most players wore the shirts fully through pre-match formalities
- Mbappe and Vinicius removed theirs before the handshake
- Real Madrid previously showed Ceuta support before Inter Milan game
The gesture comes after Real Madrid's earlier tribute to Ceuta following a major migration crisis in the Spanish territory.
