Real Madrid Confidencial Bellingham's message to Asencio after the red card vs Pachuca: 'We want...'
After the match, Jude Bellingham spoke about the red card shown to his teammate
After defeating Pachuca (3-1), Jude Bellingham, who scored the first goal of the match, spoke to the media. The English footballer, pleased with his performance, shared his thoughts on the match played by the Madridist side.
"The match got tough after Asencio was sent off, but with our personality we were able to turn things around. We had to weather the storm and Courtois was excellent. We didn't play a perfect match, but we can keep working", said Jude Bellingham.
"We want Courtois to have less work"
Additionally, Jude Bellingham also remembered one of his teammates. Thibaut Courtois was one of the standout players of the match, as he managed to make as many as 10 saves. Yesterday, the Belgian became the goalkeeper with the most saves in a Club World Cup match.
"Raúl Asencio made a small mistake, but these things happen, he's still very young. We want to keep Thibaut Courtois less busy in the next match, but that's why he's there, because he's the best goalkeeper in the world", explained Jude Bellingham.
The Englishman, who is increasingly comfortable with Xabi Alonso, was full of praise for his coach. "We were left with one less because a disadvantage was created and Asencio had to commit the foul. We knew how to move and change the situation", he began by saying.
"Xabi Alonso is a 'top' coach. I talk to him a lot and we're very happy because he has very good ideas for this new stage", he added.
He confirmed his surgery after the Club World Cup
"I've reached the point where the pain isn't so bad. I was tired of playing with the sling. I'm losing a lot of weight from sweating so much and I have surgery after the tournament", he said.
"I've been waiting for a long time and I'm running out of patience, but the physios and doctors are being unbelievable and I want to feel free", concluded Bellingham.
The English footballer has been dealing with pain, sometimes unbearable, in his shoulder for several months. Although he was advised to have surgery in the past, the procedure means being out for almost three months (about 12 weeks), so Bellingham hadn't found the right time.
However, the player has already decided to undergo surgery after the conclusion of the Club World Cup, something he confirmed in recent hours.
