Only captains can speak – Barcelona’s film reacts to Bellingham’s red card against Osasuna

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick reacted to Jude Bellingham’s red card against Osasuna on Saturday.

Bellingham was sent by referee Munuera Montero in their 1-1 draw in a Laliga match.

Kylian Mbappe gave Los Blancos an early advance in the Laliga match on Saturday.

But Los Blancos then saw three strong sanction claims stirred by Montero.

Frustrated by Montero’s arbitration, Bellingham expressed his frustration towards the referee while they were preparing to kick in the 39th minute.

His comments led him to be shown a right red card for dissent.

Speaking after the match, Ancelotti said, “I think the referee did not understand the English of Jude Bellingham.

“He said F *** OFF, not F *** You … It’s very different.”

Flick was asked about the incident before his own match against Rayo Vallecano on Monday.

He replied, “If you tell me that, I think it’s not very nice and shows a lack of respect. But I am not the one who decides on this subject.

“I always say to my players, why waste time chatting with the referee after a decision?” Only captains can speak.
