It’s not quite been the start to Mourinho’s tenure that Real Madrid would have wanted, sitting down in fourth with five wins and two defeats from their seven LaLiga games.
Dean Huijsen’s red card changed the game against Atletico, with Alex Grimaldo scoring the resulting penalty and Jonathan David adding another a few minutes later.
Atletico may have been lucky to end the game with 11 men on the pitch. First, Cristian Romero made a studs up challenge on Bellingham, but VAR deemed it to only be a yellow card.
Real Madrid also believe that that Atletico’s Kang-in Lee should have suffered the same fate as Huijsen for a rash tackle of Fede Valverde.
After the game as he was talking off the pitch, Bellingham was seen approaching the official and repeatedly shouting "Two red cards! Two!"
