Bellingham: Recovery Needed for the Metropolitano Battle
Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid’s star, did not have his best game against Rayo Vallecano, showing a subdued version that worries Merengue fans on the eve of the crucial match at the Metropolitano. His lack of shots on goal and low participation in offensive play contrasted with his usual display and dynamism.
Despite a discreet game, the English player proves reliable in European competitions, being fundamental in Real Madrid’s latest Champions League matches, where he has contributed key goals and assists away from the Bernabéu.
His physical display and ability to recover balls are crucial for the team’s balance, especially given the lower defensive participation of other teammates in the attack. Carlo Ancelotti is confident that Bellingham will recover his best form for the Madrid derby at the Metropolitano.
The Italian coach emphasizes Bellingham’s importance not only for his scoring ability, but also for his defensive commitment and his ability to generate opportunities near the rival area. Madrid fans hope that Bellingham will once again be that decisive player who bites on the field and leads the team to victory in a match that promises to be intense and disputed.
