Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham recently shared the details of how the team celebrated their La Liga title win last season.
He revealed that the players gathered together with their families to watch an important match between Barcelona and Girona.
Bellingham described the atmosphere as lively and enjoyable, highlighting the fun they had drinking wine and spending time together as a team.
He also revealed that every time Girona scored a goal against Barcelona, the excitement in the room was palpable, with cheers and celebrations erupting among the group.
“We were watching the game between Barça and Girona, all together with our families. It was great, drinking wine and enjoying each other as a team. It was very good and every time Girona scored, the room erupted,” he said on his YouTube channel.
Champions on non-matchday
Last season, Real Madrid did not clinch the title by playing on the day they were declared champions. Instead, the title was decided when Barcelona lost to Girona with a score of 4-2 on May 4.
This unexpected twist meant that Real Madrid became champions without stepping onto the field that day, which made the celebrations even more memorable.
Bellingham recently revisited the special day of their title win. He reflected on how the team reacted to each of Girona’s goals against Barcelona, adding to the thrill of the moment.
In this video, Bellingham also reminisced about other significant matches, including their victory against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League. He expressed his disbelief at the possibility of being eliminated, even after missing an early penalty in that game.
“Even after missing the first penalty, I still didn’t believe we would be eliminated,” he added.
Overall, Bellingham’s insights provide a glimpse into the camaraderie and joy that filled the room as the team celebrated their triumph, showcasing the strong bonds that players build not only on the pitch but also off it.
