Bellingham, who contributed goals and assists to Real Madrid, said, “This victory is very important to us and we are all very happy. We all made great efforts, which is why we deserve these 3 points. We were very decisive in controlling the ball in the first half, and every time we got the ball, we were able to create good shots and attacks.”
"The second half was more about defense. Militao, Dean Huissen, Carreras, and Carvajal who came on as a substitute all played very well, but the whole team played very well. This victory is also dedicated to the fans. We didn't play well in the key games last season, and this victory belongs to everyone, including the players, coaching staff and fans."
Bellingham also pointed out, "The opponent played very high up the pitch, and with Mbappé it was easier for him to be in front. I turned and passed the ball, and then he shot and scored. This kind of goal is my favorite. Many people say it is luck, but for me, it depends on my understanding of the game."
"When the ball is here or there, a change of position can change everything and I am always ready. Militao headed the ball and I was there to score."
