Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham will not face punishment for insulting referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero during a tense match against Espanyol, as the incident occurred on the pitch.
Bellingham, visibly frustrated, was shown a yellow card for protesting a missed call and was caught on camera calling the referee a 'piece of s**t', but no further action will be taken.
La Liga only investigates comments made in a public setting, which means without a formal complaint, the incident involving Bellingham will not be pursued, allowing him to continue playing.
The decision comes in light of the memorable match in which Madrid overcame Espanyol’s early lead, highlighting the emotional intensity and competitiveness in the league.
