Jude Bellingham seen instructing Mbappe, Vinicius, Rodrygo during Madrid vs Mallorca

Jude Bellingham took on a leadership role during Real Madrid’s 1-1 draw with Mallorca in their La Liga opener.

The English international was seen urging teammates to capitalize on their chances.

Bellingham addressed Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr, and Rodrygo during the halftime break.

“We need to finish the attack because running back is tough,” Bellingham told the attacking trio.

Mbappe, making his league debut for Real Madrid, struggled throughout the match, even though he agreed to Bellingham’s sentiments.

Despite the pep talk, Mallorca equalized just minutes into the second half through Vedat Muriqi, and Real Madrid’s struggles continued.

The Spanish giants missed several late chances to secure a win, and their night worsened when Ferland Mendy received a red card for a reckless tackle in the final minute.

Manager Carlo Ancelotti expressed his disappointment after the match, stating, “We lacked balance. I am not happy with the draw because we could have done better. We needed more attitude.”
