Still scoring in Braga, Jude Bellingham had to leave his teammates before the end of the match. And this as the clash against FC Barcelona looms on Saturday.
Three matches, three victories: Real Madrid continues its flawless run in the Champions League. Traveling to Braga, the Spanish vice-champions won 2-1 in Portugal and spent an overall quiet evening.
The only false note, the exit of Jude Bellingham, author of his team’s second goal and his 11e goal in 12 matches with Real Madrid. This bad news is all the more worrying since the Merengue have a meeting with Barça on Saturday for the Clasico.
Carlo Ancelotti nevertheless wanted to be reassuring after the meeting. “Jude is doing well, he felt a little strain on his adductors because the ground was a little soft, but he will recover. Like everyone else, he’s a little tired, but he’s fine and that’s normal.” he told the press.
