Leak of the Video That Has Saved Bellingham and Knocks Out de Burgos Bengoechea

The Evidence That Has Shown the Serious Mistake Made by De Burgos Bengoechea with Jude Bellingham's Expulsion

The match between Real Madrid and Barcelona for the Copa del Rey has given much to talk about. Apart from the final result, the controversies of the game didn't take long to appear, with Real Madrid as the main affected party after the final whistle. Suffering the expulsions of Rüdiger, Bellingham, and Lucas Vázquez, Real Madrid has managed to save the Englishman.

In the report presented by De Burgos Bengoechea, it can be seen that Bellingham's expulsion was for approaching the referee with "an aggressive attitude." Facing a significant sanction for this, Real Madrid has shown a video as evidence to save Bellingham. In it, it can be seen that the Englishman never approaches the referee.

Although the video itself shows how Bellingham intended to speak with De Burgos Bengoechea, his own teammates prevented him. Due to this, not approaching the referee aggressively, Jude Bellingham hasn't received any sanction.

Bellingham's Salvation

Throughout the entire Copa del Rey final, the refereeing excelled once again for its questionable decisions. De Burgos Bengoechea, the main responsible, particularly stood out during the extra times of this tense match. Making increasingly surprising decisions, Real Madrid ended up tired of another inefficient job.

This was shown in his report, where De Burgos Bengoechea sought to harm as many Real Madrid players as possible. With Lucas Vázquez and Rüdiger receiving strong sanctions, the next was Bellingham for an action he never committed.

Although De Burgos Bengoechea remained firm in his version, the leaked video has completely exposed him to the world. Being able to see a Bellingham who never approached him, De Burgos Bengoechea's judgment is being questioned.

De Burgos Bengoechea's Mistake

Seeking to improve the refereeing situation in Spanish soccer, this situation has proven Real Madrid right. With referees making decisions that severely harm Real Madrid, it wouldn't be surprising if the club takes action again. At least, for the end of the season, Real Madrid will be able to count on Jude Bellingham.
