“Not yet over” -Jude Bellingham fires warning at Arsenal

Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has fired a strong warning to Arsenal as the Spanish giants look to turn lime into lemonade by overturning a 3-0 deficit in the Champions League quarter-final.

The reigning champions suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal in the first leg of the quarter-final at Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night.

A second-half brace from Declan Rice and a 75th-minute goal from Mikel Merino secured the Gunners with one-foot ahead in the knockout tie.

It was Bellingham’s persistence and aggressiveness on Thomas Partey just outside the box that gifted the opponent a free kick, from which Rice scored with a world-class strike. 

The former Dortmund midfielder’s overall performance was seen as below par, per his standards – as he made only two key passes in the second half.

On Wednesday, a day after the total annihilation in north London, Bellingham sent out a menacing warning to the Premier League giants as he wrote on his Instagram story:

“Not over yet,” said Bellingham.
