Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti thinks Jude Bellingham should not have been shown a red card. Because the players did not use words to disrespect the referee.

The Whites drew 2-2 with Valencia in La Liga last Saturday, with Los Blancos now on 66 points from 27 matches played. โปรโมชั่น ufabet

Even in that game, Real Madrid trailed 0-2 before fighting back to equalize. But in the last minute of extra time, Braim Diaz opened the ball for Jude Bellingham to hit the far post, but referee Jesus Kiel Manzano called the time out just in time.

The protests after the game also resulted in Jude Bellingham, an important midfielder, being shown a red card. After the fragile decision maker saw that the player had used inappropriate words.

“His red card worries us,” the Italian said.

“He tries to express his emotions through words. He acted violently but not threateningly. It’s normal after what happened and to say, ‘It’s a door.’

“He did not use any disrespectful words. He was just irritated. But he didn’t use any disrespectful words against (the referee). No, let’s see what they said. What will (the referee team) write in the report?”

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti insisted after the game that Bellingham did not insult the referee.

“We were annoyed with Bellingham’s red card,” Ancelotti said.

“He didn’t say any insults. He said in English ‘it’s a f—ing goal,’ but he was just saying what we were all thinking. [The referee] allowed play to continue. I think he made a mistake. [Bellingham] was clear in what he said.

“He was quite vehement [in his reaction] but that’s normal, after what happened. It wasn’t an insult, not at all.”
