Jude Bellingham has moved to clean up his controversial red card in Real Madrid's 1-1 LA Liga-equal game in Osasuna.
The International England was rejected via a straight red card just before the break with Los Blancos that led 1-0 in Pamplona.
Referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero sent Bellingham for the second time in his Real Madrid career after a flash point between the couple after a free kick by Osasuna.
Bellingham stubbornly seemed to talk to Montero when the game was started again and the civil servant eventually brought out a red card.
Luka Modric was spotted to explain the situation at the start of the second period, but the damage was already caused from the Pellingham perspective.
Bellingham explained on full -time and claimed that the interpretation in Spanish of what he said in English was not understood correctly.
“I don't want to repeat what I said, but it's more like 'f ** k' or 'f ** k off'. I want everyone to know that I did not want to place the team in a situation where they had to play with ten, “according to quotes from Marca.
“If you watch the video that you can see, it is not the same as what the report says, I hope that the federation will take this into account. I didn't insult anyone, I didn't even say it to the referee, I told myself.
“It was a lack of understanding, a clear error from the referee.”
The issue was exacerbated by different interpretations of what Bellingham said with Real Madrid who indicates that his four word expletive can be conceived as 'not f ** with me' in Spanish, which does not seem to be the case.
The situation will be assessed in the coming days by La Liga and the RFEF with Bellingham who is currently confronted with Girona with Girona with Girona with Girona with Girona with Girona with Girona.
