Osasuna 1-1 Real Madrid: Jude Bellingham sent as the League leaders.

Osasuna 1-1 Real Madrid: Jude Bellingham sent as the League leaders.

Jude Bellingham was sent when Real Madrid lost the opportunity to move four points at the top of the league in a frustrating raffle against Osasuna.

The midfielder of England, who scored the late winner of the Real in Manchester City in the Champions League On Tuesday, a straight red was shown in the 39th minute for the missing and abusive language towards referee José Luis Munuera Montero.

Bellingham’s only prior dismissal for Real occurred after the final whistle in a 2-2 draw in Valencia in March 2024, when he received a second yellow for complaining before the referee.

France’s eaves, Kylian Mbappe, had given Real the advantage in El Sadar stadium, which cools to Federico Valverde’s perfect cross to shoot his goal from season 17 of season 17.

But Osasuna received a lifeguard in the 58th minute after Eduardo Camavingo was tried for having committed a lack of suede Budimir in the box, and the local striker matched from the place.

After the game, Bellingham insisted that he had been expressing his frustration and not insulting the referee.

“It is difficult when a referee is not sure, to determine that I have said something that I have not done, and as a result hinders the team,” he said.

“I think you can see clearly in the video … I remember the incident very well, it was an expression for myself.

“I am not even heading towards the referee, but obviously there was a misunderstanding. He believed that I have said (something insulting) for him.

“There was no intention to insult him, there was no insult, and for that reason I think you can see that there was a misunderstanding.”

In a head of the Press Conference after the party, Carlo Ancelotti explained, in Spanish, except for the damn English, that Bellingham used an improper, but was not addressed to the official.

“I think with the red Bellingham card (the referee) did not understand English well. I don’t think it is an offensive,” Ancelotti added.

“I think the red card came out because the referee was nervous. Bellingham did nothing today to have been sent, absolutely nothing.”

As the second half advanced, Real 10-Man continued to press for a winner, but Mbappe lost the opportunity to find Vinicius JR in acres of space in the Osasuna box.

The Brazilian striker forged the opportunity to shoot Real in front with 15 minutes, dripping beyond two defenders in the area before Alejandro Catena left his effort.

Vinicius also took a cross of rear posts with 10 minutes, but Luka Modric could not direct his side volley on the target.

Atlético de Madrid, who is two points behind Real, will go to the top if they win against Celta Vigo later on Saturday.

Hansi Flick’s Barcelona will also jump to Real in the goals difference if they beat Rayo Vallecano on Monday night.
