'You can never be settled': Bellingham explains why Madrid are comeback kings

Real Madrid have developed the reputation of comeback kings and they proved their credentials after staging another insane remontada on Wednesday.

The Whites were 1-0 down against Bayern at the Bernabeu but a three-minute brace from Joselu late in the game sealed a trip to Wembley for Carlo Ancelotti and his men.

“We have seen it a lot of times this season where it looks like we’re dead and buried. It doesn’t matter who scores the goal because someone always manages it. That mentality of never-say-die,” Jude Bellingham told TNT Sports.

“Joselu, I don’t think he will be sleeping much tonight! He will be useless in training tomorrow. But, no honestly he deserves it all. He has been an amazing member of the squad throughout the whole season and this is his night.

“Coming here, there is a reason why we turn so many games or why when we’re down in certain legs that we always manage to come back in the second leg. It is because of these lot. They give you an energy that you can’t get from anything else.

“You come here and that is all they talk about. They talk about how you’ve had the 14th, but how they want the 15th. The lads said it was the same when we won the 10th, all they asked for was the 11th, but that is why I love being here because you can never be settled.”

Speaking with CBS Sports later, Bellingham joked: “I don't know why they sent me out for interviews because I have no words left anymore.”
