Only captains can speak – Barcelona’s Flick reacts to Bellingham’s red card vs Osasuna

Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick, has reacted to Jude Bellingham’s red card against Osasuna on Saturday.

Bellingham was sent off by referee Munuera Montero during their 1-1 draw in a LaLiga fixture.

Kylian Mbappe gave Los Blancos an early lead in the LaLiga fixture on Saturday.

But Los Blancos then saw three strong penalty claims waved away by Montero.

Frustrated by Montero’s officiating, Bellingham voiced his frustration to the referee as they prepared to take a goal kick in the 39th minute.

His comments led to him being shown a straight red card for dissent.

Speaking after the game, Ancelotti said: “I think the referee did not understand Jude Bellingham’s English.

“He said f*** off, not f*** you… that’s way different.”

Flick was asked about the incident ahead of their own game against Rayo Vallecano on Monday.

He replied: “If you say this to me, I think it’s not very nice and shows a lack of respect. But I’m not the one who decides on this.

“I always tell my players, why waste time arguing with the ref after a decision? Only captains can speak.”
