Jude Bellingham's reaction to Toni Kroos' brilliance against Juventus has gone viral online.
Bellingham has signed for Real Madrid for an initial £88.5 million fee and took no time to adapt to life at Los Blancos by scoring his first goal, a glorious chip past Andre Onana, in a Man of the Match performance against Manchester United.
He then found out what El Clasico is all about as it all kicked off in a 3-0 defeat.
Real's final game of their United States pre-season tour was a 3-1 loss to Juventus at the Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida.But a key moment from the game was when Bellingham was left in utter awe of the greatness Kroos has in his locker.
From his own half, the classy Kroos produced an outrageous pass in behind for Vinicius Jr to latch onto, with the weight absolutely perfect.
The Brazilian took the ball in his stride down the left and dinked home to reduce the deficit after Juventus were leading 2-0
Bellingham was yards away and stunned by what Kroos had just conjured up.
As soon as the pass was played he immediately applauded and he then proceeded to shake his wrist in a gesture that clearly showed his approval.The 20-year-old will no doubt learn from Kroos and plenty of people picked up on Bellingham's priceless reaction.
One commented: "The expression on his face. He's disgusted by the filthiness of that pass. That's me."Bellingham started the game in midfield with midfield metronomes Kroos and Luka Modric, with manager Carlo Ancelotti trying a 4-4-2 diamond to get the best out of his new signing.
“It allows us the opportunity to vary the system. I’m fine with not having a fixed system," Ancelotti said, as per Diario AS.
"On an individual level we have learned the best quality of Bellingham, who is an attacking midfielder and performs better than as a central midfielder. We will have to see it during the season.”
