Jude Bellingham’s ‘British Punctuality’ Continues to Shine at Real Madrid
Real Madrid’s rising star, Jude Bellingham, is earning widespread praise and admiration at the Santiago Bernabeu, with his remarkable knack for being in the right place at the right time making him a difference-maker in their Champions League opener against Union Berlin.
In the match against Union Berlin, Los Blancos dominated but struggled to find the breakthrough until the 94th minute when Bellingham capitalized on a deflected shot from Fede Valverde, securing a late victory for his team.
Bellingham has consistently demonstrated his ability to score crucial goals this season, with six goals in six games. His penchant for scoring late goals, with three coming in the 81st minute or later, has earned him the moniker of “British punctuality” by Diario AS. Remarkably, almost all of his goals have directly contributed to Real Madrid’s points this season, totaling eight.
Manager Carlo Ancelotti playfully remarked that Bellingham was “lucky too,” recognizing the quality and timing of the midfielder’s goals. Bellingham’s exceptional positioning and instinct in the box set him apart, even at a young age, making him a vital asset for Real Madrid.
