Real Madrid sensation finished Intercontinental Cup final with pain | OneFootball

Real Madrid’s impressive display in the Intercontinental Cup final saw them secure a convincing 3-0 victory against Pachuca.

The reigning European champions showcased their attacking prowess in Doha, with the front trio of Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo finding the back of the net.

However, Real Madrid’s victory on the night was marred by a potential injury to their star midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Real Madrid has kept silent on the issue so far, with no official statement regarding Bellingham’s condition.

It is anticipated that upon the team’s return to Madrid, Bellingham will take some much-needed rest and potentially undergo medical tests to ascertain the extent of his injury.

This development comes at a time when Real Madrid is looking to close out the year on a high note, with the club slated to take on Sevilla in the final game of 2024.

Bellingham’s potential, to that end, could be a huge blow for Los Blancos, especially at a time when the Englishman was just starting to find his old goalscoring form.

Nevertheless, fans should look at the bigger picture and hope there is nothing serious in regard to Bellingham’s knock against Pachuca.
