Real Madrid drew 2-2 with Valencia at the Mestalla on Saturday night, having come back from a two-goal deficit. However, it could have been so much better, had Jude Bellingham’s 99th minute header been allowed to stand.
Referee Jesus Gil Manzano blew the full time whistle just as Brahim Diaz delivered the cross for Bellingham’s effort, and upon realising that it wasn’t going to count, the Real Madrid players lost it at the on-field official – the English midfielder in particular, as he was shown a straight red card.
Speaking to the media post-match, Carlo Ancelotti revealed exactly what Bellingham said to Gil Manzano in order to be sent off, as per Marca.
“Bellingham told him ‘it’s a f*cking goal’, he didn’t insult him. We will see what the referee writes in the act.”
Further report appear to confirm that this is indeed what Bellingham said to Gil Manzano before being dismissed.
