Even though midfielder Jude Bellingham scored in Real Madrid’s 2-1 win over Braga, the former Borussia Dortmund player could be seen limping toward the end of the game.

The 20-year-old was replaced by Lucas Vazquez in the 89th minute, but he left the field holding his groin. This made fans worry that he might not be able to play in the El Clasico against Barcelona.

However, Guillermo Rai, a journalist for The Athletic, said that Real Madrid are not too worried about the situation and are hopeful that he will be fine to play against Barcelona.

On the other hand, voices from the club say that Bellingham is having some small pain in his groin area after being substituted late.

The club has chosen to let him rest today because of this, and anything related to the injury will only be looked at on Thursday. At first glance, it looks like he might be able to get better in time to play against Barcelona on Saturday.

Where did Bellingham go?

Even though Real Madrid won the game against Braga, fans were nervous because Bellingham, who scored the game-winning goal, left the field with some pain.

In the moments before he was replaced, the midfielder was seen falling to the ground, looking like he was in pain or very tired. This caused panic in the Spanish city.

What’s up with Bellingham?

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti did give an update on Bellingham’s fitness after the game, which is very important before the upcoming El Clasico match this coming weekend.

“He’s fine. The abductors had some load on them because the field was not strong. “It’s normal for him to be a little tired,” the boss said.

For now, Bellingham’s ability to play depends on how well he does on the tests he has on Thursday. There is a big problem for Ancelotti if there is a worry because he wants to use five midfielders against Barcelona.
