Jude Bellingham Jokes About Brother Jobe as He Shares His Goals at the Club World Cup

Jude Bellingham has admitted that his brother Jobe’s goal at the Club World Cup motivated him to find the back of the net during his team’s match.

During a 3-1 victory for Real Madrid against Pachuca, Jude opened the scoring in the 35th minute. The day before, Jobe scored his first goal for Borussia Dortmund in a 4-3 win over Mamelodi Sundowns.

Jude cheekily commented that there might now be a sibling rivalry to see who scores the most goals at this tournament. When asked if Jobe’s goal was on his mind, Jude told DAZN: “A little bit, honestly. Everyone was teasing me yesterday saying Jobe is better than me, so I had to step up today. We’re now tied at 1-1, and we’ll see how the rest of the tournament goes.”

The brothers could potentially face each other later in the competition, though both teams still need to secure their spots in the knockout rounds.

Real Madrid currently have four points from their first two matches, same as Dortmund. Despite an early red card to Raul Asencio, Madrid managed to overcome Pachuca with goals from Jude, Arda Guler, and Federico Valverde. Pachuca scored a late goal through Elias Montiel but couldn’t turn the game around.

Next, Madrid will face RB Salzburg, while Jobe Bellingham has settled well at Dortmund after his transfer from Sunderland. Dortmund defeated Mamelodi Sundowns and are preparing for their upcoming game against Ulsan.
