Three goals to go back against a solid arsenal team: the challenge seems immense for Real Madrid in the quarter -final return of the Champions League on Wednesday. However, on the eve of this crucial shock at the Santiago Bernabéu, Jude Bellingham posted confidence in any test at a press conference. Far from being killed by the scoring of the first leg, the English midfielder recalled the DNA of his club and promised a hostile atmosphere and a flawless determination, sounding the charge for a “raising” which promises to be epic. For him, no doubt: this kind of evening is tailor -made for Real.
History and Bernabéu as inspiration for Bellingham
How to explain such a faith despite the handicap of three goals? Bellingham draws its strength from the history of the club and the aura of the Bernabéu. “I heard that a million times since last week, I have seen a million videos (on the raising) – it's really motivating,” he said.
“It's a night that is made for Real Madrid. »» English is imbued with the mysticism of major Madrid European evenings and intends to write a new page: “I hope we can add another special night. »» He even underlined the unique opportunity: “Tomorrow is an opportunity for us to do something for the first time”, Adding additional motivation to the feat.
Bellingham and his Real teammates believe in the feat.
If he respects the quality of Arsenal (“a high -level team”), recognizing having been surprised by the free kicks of Declan Rice (“Well played to him!”), Bellingham and his teammates do not feed any complex. The slight decrease in recent offensive diet? Swept away. “Taking care of whether we scored more than one goal in the last games is not our concern. We are asked to score goals tomorrow and we must be up to the task. »»
The objective is clear: the attack, to redo the delay.
Real ready to write a new page in its history
The pressure is maximum, and this is even felt for training, where an altercation with Antonio Rüdiger has been reported. Bellingham confirmed the incident but standardized it : “It's football, it's normal on the field that emotions are going up (…) As long as the team respects themselves to have these honest conversations. Far from being a sign of division, this tension could be interpreted as the reflection of an extreme concentration and determination within the Madrid group which, despite the absences (like that of Camavonga in the middle), would be overmooled at the idea of creating the feat.
Jude Bellingham's message is therefore unequivocal: Real Madrid believes hard as iron in its chances of overthrowing Arsenal. He promises an atmosphere of fire, a team ready to “suffer” for victory and determined to enter history. The Gunners are warned: the hell of Bernabéu awaits them, orchestrated by a Real Madrid which feeds on these impossible challenges.
