Real Madrid picked up a very important win over Getafe in La Liga as the gap between them and Barcelona was reduced to a single point. Goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham helped Carlo Ancelotti‘s side as a win in the next will see the Los Blancos go two points clear of the Blaugrana.
Despite the impressive result, fans were concerned for star man Jude Bellingham as the Englishman was subbed off in the first half. The 21-year-old collided with opposition keeper David Soria, although he successfully converted a penalty afterwards.
Despite his apparent ‘readiness’ to play on, Ancelotti made the decision to sub him off. Bellingham has now posted a positive update on his Instagram.

Carlo Ancelotti is currently in his second term as Real Madrid manager. Despite bringing immense success to the club during his time in charge, the two-time UCL winner and three-time La Liga champion ran the risk of being sacked during a ‘brief’ slump in form.
It was widely reported that Madrid approached former boss Santiago Solari to step in if the club ends up sacking the Italian. It is understood that the veteran manager is now ‘upset’ with the way the club treated him and is also upset for the management’s doubt after the first slump this season. That being said, the club has reportedly opted to ‘back’ the manager, with complete trust in him.
