Jude Bellingham Addresses Red Card Incident in Real Madrid’s Match Against Osasuna

Real Madrid’s midfielder Jude Bellingham has spoken out about his dismissal during the match against Osasuna, which ended in a 1-1 draw in the 24th round of La Liga.

The 23-year-old English player received a straight red card following a conversation with the referee at the end of the first half. Bellingham clarified the situation, stating, “I did not insult the referee, and I’m glad there’s video evidence showing the real picture, despite his report. I didn’t say anything offensive. Clearly, there was a miscommunication. It wasn’t an insult, but rather an expression of my opinion.”

Bellingham added, “I’m here to apologize to my teammates because I put them in a difficult situation today.” These comments were reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano.

Despite the draw, Real Madrid (51 points) continues to hold the top position in La Liga. However, they risk losing their lead if Atletico Madrid (49 points) manages to defeat Celta Vigo in their upcoming match.
