Finally getting to play next to Mbappe was England’s best midfield player during Madrid’s Super Cup victory.

Rio Ferdinand, a legend of Manchester United, said that Jude Bellingham “looked like the big kid in the playground” during Real Madrid’s 2-0 victory over Atalanta in the Uefa Super Cup.

All hopes of an Italian surprise at the National Stadium in Warsaw were dashed by goals from Federico Valverde and rookie Kylian Mbappe.

Madrid fans saw Bellingham, Mbappe, Vinicius Jr., and Rodrygo come together to form what is perhaps the world’s best offensive quartet for the first time.

Bellingham, who capitalised on the space his new teammate had created, was the one Ferdinand thought was the star of the show while fans applauded Mbappe’s debut goal.

According to Ferdinand, “every Real Madrid fan wanted Mbappe to score” on TNT Sports. The potential all-time best player in the world has joined this squad.

Given their young age, there is a hunger. There is an influx of hungry gamers. Regardless of how amazing he has been, Mbappe needs to prove himself right now since his performance in this place has been lacking. There is still a lot of work ahead of many of these sportsmen.

Bellingham was simply amazing at number eight. He made a huge impression. Their apparent camaraderie detracts from the overall impression that they are a kind team. Bellingham will have more space because teams would have to cover twice as much ground on Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. On the playground today, he seemed to be the older pupil.

Madrid’s attacking ability appears even more dangerous when you take into account that Brazilian wonderkid Endrick, who scored the game-winning goal at Wembley in April against England, didn’t even get on the field. In a show of strength from the European champions, Arda Guler, the gifted young Turkish player whose goal against Georgia lit up Euro 2024, came off the bench with two minutes remaining.

During his incredible debut season at the Bernabeu, Bellingham guided the team to an incredible treble crown with a number of game-winning heroics. With 23 goals and 11 assists in La Liga and the Champions League, he vaulted himself and teammate Vinicius into the contention for the Ballon d’Or.

In the final minute of play against Slovenia, the midfielder scored an overhead kick to move England one step closer to the Euro 2024 championship. in order to keep Gareth Southgate’s team competitive.

With Mbappe on the sidelines, Bellingham ought to thrive even more. The former Paris Saint-Germain forward completed his free transfer to the Spanish city this summer, describing it as a “dream move.”

The 25-year-old Frenchman is up for a fresh challenge and will be striving to improve. In each of his last four seasons, he has scored at least 27 goals in the league.

Bellingham and Madrid will travel to Mallorca this Sunday to defend their Spanish titles in an effort to establish a precedent for the rest of the season.
