Jude Bellingham spoke to the media about Real Madrid's victory over Atalanta: “It was a tough match. It was going to be tough because of the way they play and their intensity. We saw that in the Uefa Super Cup and today it was similar. They're intense in one-on-ones all over the pitch and it was important to manage that well. Our quality was also decisive.”
“When you know it's a man-to-man game you have to be agile in the spaces to create them. You also have to do the initial movement that drags the opponent out of position. Brahim and I talked before the goal so that he would go inside and I would use the space behind the full-back. It worked out well and I managed to score.”
On his wonderful goal
“I try to add as much as I can to my game. I see something I like and I try to apply it. I position myself, build confidence in front of goal. I hit the ball with everything I had and luckily my shot went in and we got the three points.”
