In the earlier match in opposition to Rayo Vallecano, during which Barcelona can return to the highest of the League subsequent to Real Madrid, Hansi Flick modified technique. He didn’t (nonetheless) within the area, however within the press room. A novelty within the technician. First he stated that this time he regarded on the Madrid recreation after which analyzed the expulsion of Bellingham. “It’s a disrespect in any situation,” stated Flick. For Flick, then, there isn’t any distinction between fuck off y fuck you. According to the interpretation of the Barca coach, if a participant releases both expressions, he deserves expulsion. “I have already said what I had to say before,” the German insisted. “It is a disrespect, but I do not have to decide in this situation. I tell my players that they do not waste time or energy in talking with the referees. Decisions are already taken. There is a player in the field that has permission to discuss with the referee, and he is the captain. ”

Bellingham doesn’t put on the bracelet in Madrid. However, English ready to speak with the referee Munuera Montero within the Sadar. “I’m talking to you with respect, fuck off [no me jodas]”, He released, according to his version, on Madrid. The referee did not interpret the same words. “In the 40th minute, Bellingham was expelled for the following reason: for addressing me, being a few meters, in the following terms: ‘Fuck you‘”Munuera Montero described in the minutes. “I have not insulted anyone, it is clearly seen in the video, I do not even say it directly to the referee, I say it to myself. It was a lack of understanding, a clear mistake of the referee, ”Bellingham replied.

A theory endorsed by Carlo Ancelotti. “The pink Bellingham …”, started Carletto. “I think it has not understood English well. Things have happened in these last three games that have all seen and I don’t feel like adding more because I want to be on the bench the next game, ”the Madrid coach completed, referring to the non -expulsion of Carlos Romero after the hard entry to Mbappé in Cornellà, to the penalty of Tchouaméni about Samu Lino in the Madrid derby and the red card of Bellingham in Pamplona.

Ancelotti’s attitude is curious. Last year, when Xavi Hernández complained that he “conditioned” the referees with the videos of Real Madrid television and stressed that the league was “adulterated”, the Italian coach analyzed: “I feel I’m an expert and, as an expert I do not wish to go all the way down to this stage attributable to Spanish soccer. Don’t ask me extra about this as a result of I do not wish to go all the way down to a stage that’s not for professionals. ”

Something related occurs with Flick. After the match between Espanyol and Real Madrid, the German averted speaking concerning the motion between Romero and Mbappé. He pushed the controversy with class, even with some grace. “I didn’t see the game. I went early to bed, you can ask my wife, ”he replied. This time, Flick did see the Madrid recreation. “Yes, I was informed. They were early, ”he stated. “But,” he added, “for me what matters is ours, what we have to do. It is important to lead the classification, but the important thing is the end. We have to play and win. ” Before, in any case, he had already sent the message he wanted: “Bellingham is an absence of respect in any scenario.”

Change Flick technique, additionally Ancelotti. Surely, nothing modifications in Spanish soccer.
