The online world erupted as Jude Bellingham netted an early second-minute goal for Real Madrid in their highly anticipated clash against Valencia.
Madridistas flooded social media platforms with exuberant posts, hailing Bellingham as a generational talent and the heart of their team's midfield.
Phrases like "El Rey Jude!" and "Bellingham is unstoppable" trended within minutes.
They revelled in the explosive start, using the goal to mock Valencia and even taking shots at Izan, forgetting that the match had just started and Izan's pass early on nearly caused them problems if not for the save by Courtois.
Real Madrid fans, emboldened by their team's fast start, didn't hold back. Some derisively dismissed Izan as a "fraud" while others made cruel remarks about his youth and inexperience, claiming he "wouldn't last against the Galácticos."
