Tunnel footage involving Real Madrid’s superstar quartet of Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo has got fans talking.

On Sunday night, Carlo Ancelotti’s men began their La Liga title defence at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix as they took on RCD Mallorca.

Brazilian star Rodrygo gave the visitors the lead in the 13th minute after combining with the likes of Mbappe and Vinicius.

However, Mallorca hit back in the 53rd minute through Vedat Muriqi and held on for a 1-1 draw.

After the match, footage from inside the tunnel before the start of the second half emerged.

Englishman Bellingham was heard telling Mbappe, Vinicius and Rodrygo: “You three, we need to finish the attack, because the running back… is f***ing hard.”

Mbappe then replied: “That’s what I’m saying. We have to finish with something.”

Bellingham added: “Yeah, even… create a yard and [shoot].” You can watch the footage below.

Speaking after the match, Madrid boss Ancelotti said: “Last year I was happy with some draws, but not today. We could have done much better. I don’t want to make excuses. We just had to do better, with more attitude. You can learn from these games. It’s clear where the problem is.

“We started the game well, but it wasn’t a good game. We need to defend better. We need more balance. We’ve said it before, we’re very offensive and balance is essential.”

He added: “The problem is that the team was too open. We have to concentrate more, as we usually do. It’s not a physical or mental problem.

“When we win the ball back, we all have to think about it together. You can think that it is a problem for the forwards, but it could be a problem for the defence, or for the midfielders. It is not a problem for one, two or three. It is a problem for a team that in this match did not understand that it was a key aspect. Mallorca played a great game defensively. The draw is correct.”

Madrid will be back in action this weekend when they welcome Real Valladolid to the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon.
