Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has been handed a two-game ban for his red card for his contempt and disregard towards match referee, Gil Manzano, Marca reports.
According to the report by Marca, Real Madrid plans to appeal the decision on Jude Bellingham, as he is now set to miss the games against Celta on Sunday at the Bernabéu and on Saturday, March 16 in Pamplona against Osasuna.
Gil Manzano on his post match report, stated that : “After the end of the match and still on the field of play, he ran towards me in an aggressive attitude and shouted, repeating on several occasions ‘its a fucking goal’“.
In its resolution, Competition points out that “The repeated viewing of the images has not allowed this Committee to conclude, beyond all doubt, that the action that led to the expulsion did not occur as described by the referee and, ultimately, prove the material error manifest in the referee’s report. The tone and attitude of the player and the number of times the phrase is repeated is decisive in contextualizing the action and the effect of the specific words spoken by the player, beyond their translation literal,” Marca reports.
