Carlo Ancelotti (Real Madrid coach, after the 2-1 victory against Barcelona): “Jude Bellingham? Everyone is surprised, especially by its effectiveness. He always takes his chances, but what was surprising today was his shooting. He doesn’t score many goals from near the box. He’s a player who makes a lot of difference, I don’t know where he’ll end up in the Ballon d’Or. He looks like a veteran. His attitude is very good.
The objective of the match was not to draw, but to try to win. The equalizer changed the dynamic, with more strength and energy from us, more weaknesses from Barcelona who, until that moment, had played better. We have the advantage (4 points ahead, Editor’s note) and nothing more. The season is very long. Barcelona are still a great team, with a great squad and we will fight until the end. (Bellingham) can easily reach 20 or 25 goals, but we don’t consider him a scorer, we consider him a very important player for us, we also expect goals from the attackers.
