Jude Bellingham matches Real Madrid royalty! England star emulates legendary goalkeeper Iker Casillas as he makes Champions League history for Los Blancos

Bellingham created Champions League history and equalled Casillas' record on Wednesday when he took to the field for Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final fixture against Arsenal at Santiago Bernabeu. He appeared in the Champions League for the 47th time in his career, the most for a player aged 21 or below. Yet it ended up being a tough night for Bellingham as Madrid were dumped out of the tournament.

The Gunners carried a 3-0 lead to Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and were handed a glorious chance to extend that advantage in the opening stages of the second leg. After Raul Asencio clipped Mikel Merino's legs from behind inside the area, a penalty was awarded to the visitors, but Bukayo Saka's weak shot was comfortably parried away by Thibaut Courtois. Soon after the penalty miss, Madrid thought they had a chance to equalise when Kylian Mbappe went down inside the Arsenal box after a challenge from Declan Rice. The referee initially booked the Gunners midfielder and awarded a penalty, but VAR overturned the decision.

Injured Los Blancos defender Dani Carvajal was spotted clashing with Saka as the Arsenal winger headed into the tunnel at half-time at the Bernabeu. The Spaniard approached Saka near the tunnel, and he seemed to be hassling the Three Lions star in an ugly confrontation.

After sealing a spot in the Champions League last-four stage against PSG, Mikel Arteta's side will be back in action in the Premier League on Saturday as they face relegation-threatened Ipswich Town in a must-win clash. Meanwhile, Bellingham and Madrid must attempt to bounce back in La Liga against Athletic Club on Sunday.
