Ep. 81 – A Legend in the Making

At this point in the 2023-24 season, if you overhear football fans talking about an amazing Real Madrid player doing amazing things, scoring last-minute goals, and hoisting the team on his back to pull them over the finish line...you would probably know that the player they are speaking about is Jude Bellingham. At 20 years old, he is, without a doubt a Real Madrid legend in the making. Pundits and journalists worldwide, whether they are sitting behind a laptop in Kolkata, a newsdesk in London, or a TV studio in Connecticut, have already pretty much agreed that the words and the adjectives used to describe what Jude Bellingham has done so far in his first season at Real Madrid are starting to run out. He hasn't just defied expectations, he has grabbed them, slapped them around a bit, and confidently stared them down while saying, "Is that all you got?". He was already making jaws drop and shutting up rival fans before this weekend's El Clásico. But one right-footed rocket from outside Barcelona's box to score the equalizing goal will now make him part of highlight reels for years to come and an indelible part of Real Madrid's history. And the best part about his performance against Barcelona this past Saturday was that it wasn't even his best game. But like other world-class players that have come before him at this historic club, one moment and a sliver of space is all they need to turn a game on its head. In this episode, we discuss Real Madrid's win over Barcelona in El Clásico and we of course talk about the one man that made all the difference. "Hey, Jude!"
