Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham hit out at his two-game suspension in LaLiga on Wednesday, calling it "a bit ridiculous" and claiming that "because I'm new [to the league], they want to make an example [of me]."
He was handed a two-game ban by the Spanish football federation (RFEF)'s disciplinary committee this week following his red card for protesting the referee's decision to blow his whistle seconds before he found the net for a late winner in Saturday's 2-2 draw at Valencia.
