The England midfielder, 21, made a gesture towards the goalkeeper by pointing at his eyes, indicating that he was keeping an eye on him.

Bellingham’s penalty was executed with a stylish hop, skip, and pause before he rolled the ball into the back of the net.

The match stood at 0-0 when Antonio Rudiger was fouled by Allan Nyom in the box.

Typically, Kylian Mbappe would take the penalty.

However, due to his missed penalty in the 2-0 defeat against Liverpool, Bellingham was entrusted with the task this time.

Mbappe then scored eight minutes later, securing the win for his team.

Real Madrid emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline in the La Liga match, maintaining their chase behind leaders Barcelona.

Fans lauded Bellingham online for his ‘cool’ finish and celebration.

One supporter commented: “Jude Bellingham puts the GK down and reminds him he’s watching. Ice-cold.”
