The Precedent That Could Free Bellingham From the Sanction for His Remark to the Referee

What happened in the last match of the white team against Osasuna was simply an exhibition of arrogance by the referees. In this sense, it was a misunderstanding by referee Munuera Montero against Bellingham. However, he had no qualms about deciding that the English player should leave the field with a straight red card.

This could mark a turning point in what should be 100% authoritative refereeing decisions. Nevertheless, there is a precedent that could play in Real Madrid's favor, which was discussed on El Chiringuito de Jugones. This is due to an incident where Mason Greenwood was wrongfully given a red card due to a misinterpretation, and it was proven otherwise.

This way, they could then regain hope that the Englishman might actually end up without a sanction. Something that would immediately provoke the anger of anti-Madridists, who only hope for the white team to fail.

There Is a Precedent in Favor

In this sense, we are talking about another British footballer in the Spanish competition, and it is Getafe player Mason Greenwood. The player had exactly the same misunderstanding with a referee and was expelled in the same manner.

This, in addition to showing the poor level of English by the refereeing body, also shows an impressive arrogance. However, the most important thing about all this is that it was ultimately proven that the player had nothing to do with this accusation.

This way, the white team will seek to demonstrate that they have not committed any offense against the referee. Something that the footballer himself and, in fact, in the footage, it is clearly seen that there is no such intention.

This Will Be a Drama

Whatever the final outcome, some fans will react to the result and determination of what happened. If forgiveness for this action is not granted, it will be the Madridists who react. Otherwise, the antis will end up crying over a more than fair decision.
