Jude Bellingham showed absolute composure as he opened the scoring for Real Madrid in a 2-0 win over Getafe from the penalty spot, while sending a “chilling” message to the opposition goalkeeper.

Jude Bellingham makes ‘cold gesture’ to opponent after scoring from penalty spot

The match was still level at 0-0 when Antonio Rudiger was fouled in the penalty area by Allan Nyom, and the referee immediately pointed to the penalty spot.

In contrast to Kylian Mbappe – who missed a penalty in Wednesday’s defeat to Liverpool – Bellingham stepped up to take it with confidence. He moved slightly before pausing, waiting for goalkeeper David Soria to dive, then coolly slotting the ball into the other corner.

After the goal, Bellingham turned around and pointed two fingers towards his eyes, as if to say that he had “observed very carefully” the opposing goalkeeper.

Bellingham’s confident gesture immediately sent social media into a frenzy, with many praising his cool shot and celebration, while ironically suggesting he had shown Mbappe how to take a penalty properly.

Despite his impressive performance, Bellingham was forced off in the first half with a neck problem. After the match, coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that the injury was not serious.

“He had a little problem with his neck and couldn’t continue playing, but it’s not a serious injury,” Ancelotti said.The Italian coach also shared more about the match: “Today the team played well, balanced and had great fighting spirit. Despite many difficulties, especially with injuries, Real Madrid still fought with all their might. What gives me confidence is that the whole team has regained their spirit, attitude and concentration. Step by step, we will solve the problems and continue to fight.”
