After Real Madrid’s victory over Mallorca on Saturday, Jude Bellingham had an amusing encounter with an apparent lookalike.
Aurelien Tchouameni’s incredible long-range goal gave Carlo Ancelotti’s team a 1-0 victory and moved them one step closer to winning the Laliga title.
As a result, Real Madrid will continue to lead arch rivals Barcelona by eight points going into next weekend’s El Classico.
Before the game, Bellingham had cause for celebration after running into a lookalike on the touchline.
When the 20-year-old midfielder saw the man, he began to giggle a little and gave him a hug.

After noticing similarities between the two, fans rushed to social media to share their thoughts. One person commented, “They really look alike.”
Someone else expressed the exact same thought, writing, “They look so alike.”
Following his £113 million summertime move to the Spanish city, Bellingham has had a season to remember.
With 33 games in all competitions, the England international has 20 goals and 10 assists, leading Real Madrid’s hopes of winning both La Liga and the Champions League.
Nevertheless, he was picked in the worst starting lineup for the Champions League quarterfinals thus far after having a forgettable game in the midweek 3–3 draw with Manchester City.
When Real visits the Etihad on Wednesday for the return game, Bellingham will be hoping to make things right.
