Carlo Ancelotti defended Jude Bellingham following his expulsion in Real Madrid's match against Osasuna, where the midfielder received a red card for allegedly using foul language towards the referee. Ancelotti maintained that Bellingham's comments were misinterpreted due to language differences, emphasizing that the player did not intend any offense. He suggested that the referee's decision reflected nervousness rather than an appropriate response to misconduct, while Bellingham himself stated that the footage would confirm his lack of insult. The incident is Bellingham's second red card with Real Madrid.
I think with Bellingham's red card, [the referee] didn't understand the English well. I don't think it's something offensive. I think the red card came out because the referee was nervous. Bellingham did nothing today to have been sent off, absolutely nothing.
There was no insult and it's clear on the video.
