    1. “Appears to”? Really OP? He straight up smacked that guy when he wasn’t looking.

      It was either because Barco said something or because Jude hates ginger

      I’m not sure

      That’s so weird because just a few days ago, England fans were boasting that even though their player pushed Erling first and was talking smack, it was bad form to push back. But unprovoked slapping is chill? 🙄 Oh, Britannia.

    4. Jude understands Spanish, so I’m assuming the Argentine said something incredibly racist.

      Barco was asking for it. So he deserves. He is annoying. When Argentina scored, he went on to taunt the English staff and substitute players.

      Bellingham hugged one of the Argentine players like two seconds before and you can see Nico Paz (Argentine player) react to Barco’s words before Bellingham even reacts, which is why he tried to separate them after the slap instead of fully siding with Barco. 

      Most likely the 🇦🇷 player was mocking him with words, because that’s what they’re known to do whether they win or lose, water is wet, that being said Bellingham should’ve just taken the L and ignore him and walk away, but then again he is quite dramatic himself. 

    7. We don’t know if anything was said to Jude, if it was offensive I understand his reaction. But if it was just him attacking the player because he lost then that’s poor form. The Argentinian players also were badly behaved when they unfurled that banner. It’s a shame that this is how the game ended.

      Insolent and rude. Disrespecting everyone just because he can’t admit his lost and then Beckham call us violent on the field when this guy has been disrespecting everyone since minute one

      Oh good. The personality driven England team rears its head again. Weren’t we over this after Rooney got too swollen to run? Do what will smith should have done and Save it for a twitlonger

      I know he’s hot but Jude is kind of a twat. and I actually liked him for a hot second even though I’m a Barcelona fan.

      I’ll be honest, the clip looks like he probably had a good reason. He had specific beef with 1 guy and was fine 2 second before.

      Wouldn’t be surprised if the Argentine said something stupid or even racist, considering its Argentina

      Barca probably said Lord Palmerston was the greatest British Prime Minister in history, because I’m pretty sure Bellingham is a big Pitt the Elder fan.

      By Jude’s reaction before he walks over, it looks like he heard something. No prizes for guessing what it might have been

      Did Barco say anything provocative? Jude was just hugging an Argentina player so he was still calm before that.
