Jude Bellingham gives a double thumbs-up while wearing a Real Madrid kit during a match

Vinicius was instrumental in Real Madrid’s recent game, scoring once and assisting in three goals, showcasing one of his standout performances this season. This came shortly after fans had greeted him with whistles and jeers during a La Liga clash with Levante.

Frustration had boiled over among supporters, especially aimed at Vinicius and Bellingham, following a string of disappointing results. Those setbacks culminated in coach Xabi Alonso’s dismissal and Madrid's exit from the Copa del Rey.

I think he's a player who thrives when he gets love. You could see today when the kind of atmosphere changed towards him.

Bellingham’s late goal against Monaco sparked a unique celebration, mocking rumors about his nightlife by mimicking chugging drinks. This was a pointed response to critics questioning his professionalism.

A lot of people say a lot of things, it feels like anyone now can get in front of a camera and say what they want and the whole world just believes them with no evidence,

Bellingha

It was a bit of a joke back to the fans and to the people who say whatever they want. For me, I know the truth. I know what really goes on in my personal life.
