Madrid: Real Madrid have decided to appeal against a yellow card shown to forward Cristiano Ronaldo in Wednesday`s 2-0 La Liga win at Rayo Vallecano that will result in a one-match suspension if it stands.
It was the league top scorer`s fifth yellow and means he will miss Saturday`s game at home to Eibar if the appeal fails.
"Real Madrid will appeal the yellow card that Cristiano Ronaldo received in the game yesterday," the club said on their website (www.realmadrid.com) on Thursday.
With a win against La Liga debutants Eibar, second-placed Real can close to within a point of leaders Barcelona who play at Sevilla later on Saturday.
