What happened. The RFEF's Comité de Disciplina published its disciplinary resolution for the round on 23 September, covering the Atlético Madrid-Real Madrid derby. Real Madrid received a specific warning over compliance with official match timings, while Dean Huijsen and two staff members were handed one-match domestic bans.

Huijsen was sent off for an action in his own penalty area involving Giuliano Simeone.
Pedro Luis Ferreira (Real Madrid) and Ignacio Pablo Vercellone (Atlético) each get one-match sanctions.
The committee told Real Madrid to ensure strict adherence to kick-off and half-time timings.

“Procede recordar al Real Madrid CF la obligación que viene impuesta a los equipos respecto al estricto cumplimiento del horario oficial establecido para el inicio de los encuentros”
— RFEF Comité de Disciplina

Real Madrid must now manage Huijsen's domestic suspension and tighten its matchday timing procedures in upcoming fixtures.
