Bellingham explains his Zidane-esque touch in buildup to Madrid's goal v Man City

Jude Bellingham played a massive role in Real Madrid's only goal against Manchester City at the Etihad.

The midfielder exhibited some Zidane-like control before sending the ball into the path of Valverde who then teed up Vinicius for the assist.

Asked about his outrageous skill in changing the trajectory of the ball Bellingham said, "I thought I could get it the other way so we can create a chance later on.

"I think the important thing is the movement after which is really good to see. Fede, Vini and Rodrygo getting into the right area," Jude added.

Here's Jude's post-match comments on CBS.
