The pair simultaneously jogged on the spot while shaking their hips before giving each other a double high five as the Real Madrid faithful celebrated.

It may have been a tribute to Vinicius Jr, who frequently does a dance after celebrating a goal, with the Brazilian a late withdrawal from the game; Diaz was named in the team at the start as a result.

However, the joy was wiped away from all those associated with Real Madrid as they were forced to settle for a point when former player Marcos Llorente headed in Atletico’s equaliser in stoppage time.

The 1-1 draw means Carlo Ancelotti’s side missed the chance to go four points clear at the top of LaLiga ahead of surprise title contenders Girona.

Bellingham had been substituted in the 88th minute on what was a relatively quiet evening for him, although he felt aggrieved to have not been awarded a penalty following a clumsy challenge by Stefan Savic.

He certainly showed his displeasure at not being given the spot-kick by slamming both hands on the pitch as the referee waved play on.

England star Bellingham has made himself a fan favourite in the Spanish capital thanks to an electric start to life with 18 goals and eight assists in 27 appearances for the club.

He’s encountering something of a mini-slump in his personal form though with just one goal in eight appearances since he returned from the winter break.
