Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid midfielder, was amused by an image where Kylian Mbappé checks the condition of his nose after a shock received during the match against Getafe (2-0) on Sunday. A “specialist” analysis of the Frenchman, victim of a broken nose last summer at the Euro.
Real Madrid has found a little lightness since Sunday. The victory against Getafe (2-0) brought back some smiles four days after the new disappointment in the Champions League at Liverpool (2-0), during which Kylian Mbappé displayed a very worrying level. On Sunday, the Frenchman scored and also became a teammate concerned about the state of his partners. A photo shows him checking Jude Bellingham's nose after a blow received by the latter.
Bellingham replaced at half-time
The scene amused the Englishman who humorously praised the expertise of the 2018 world champion. “Quick check from the nose specialist,” he commented in a reference to the broken nose suffered by Mbappé during the last Euro. The French striker was injured during France's first match in the competition against Austria (1-0) after receiving an involuntary violent shoulder blow from Kevin Danso. His condition had punctuated the Blues' competition.
If he missed the following match against the Netherlands, he played wearing a mask during the matches against Poland, Belgium and Portugal. He removed his protection during the semi-final lost to Spain (2-1). At the end of the competition, the 2018 world champion did not undergo surgery. The case of Jude Bellingham seemed less serious even if the former Dortmund player left at half-time of the match. “His neck was blocked and he couldn't continue, but I think he will be ready in a few days,” Carlo Ancelotti explained after the match.
Kylian Mbappé's delicate gesture towards Jude Bellingham is not the only attention he has had with the English environment. Earlier, Mbappé had let his partner take the penalty for the opener, four days after missing his attempt against Liverpool four days earlier. “When Vinicius is there, the shooter decides between him and Mbappé. Without Vinicius (forfeit) on the pitch, those who had to choose were Mbappé and Bellingham, and between them they decided that Jude should shoot him,” explained Carlo Ancelotti.
