The England international was left furious after referee, Gil Manzano, failed to award the goal as soon as the final whistle was blown on Saturday, March 2, 2024. According to Bellingham, the whistle went while the ball was in the air and the goal was supposed to be awarded.

Manzano explained in his official referee report that he had produced the red card because Bellingham “ran at me in an aggressive attitude and yelling, repeating various times, ‘It’s f**king goal!’”

Hugo Duro had given Valencia the lead in the first half with a reaction header before Roman Yaremchuk intercepted Dani Carvajal’s wayward back pass and made it 2-0, stunning the visiting side.

Real Madrid pulled a goal back through Vinícius Jr. right on the stroke of halftime and continued to push for an equalizer in the second half. The Brazilian got the Galacticos back into the game when he headed in from close range for his ninth league goal of the season.
