What Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham did immediately after Real Madrid beat Real Oviedo 2-0 in La Liga on Thursday night has gone viral.

Mbappe was brought on as a 69th-minute substitute in Real's 2-0 win over Real Oviedo, having missed the last two games with a muscle injury.

During his absence, Real have descended into chaos, starting with an altercation between team-mates Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni at the club's training ground.

Club president Florentino Perez then called an extraordinary press conference, where he called for elections three years early and was accused of sexism towards two female journalists.

He said his likely rival for the presidency, Enrique Riquelme - who is Spanish - spoke in a 'funny accent... a South American, Mexican accent', and bizarrely asked if journalists 'want to kill me'.

Head coach Alvaro Arbeloa is also seemingly set to leave the club at the end of the season to make way for the return of Jose Mourinho, amid a number of reported rows with players.

Among them is said to be Mbappe, with Spanish football expert Graham Hunter claiming earlier this month that there was a 'dissatisfaction' among the coach and some players about the Frenchman's 'work ethic'.

There has also been speculation surrounding a rift with Bellingham - and what happened between the pair on the Bernabeu pitch at full-time against Oviedo didn't do much to dampen those rumours.

Real were able to secure a 2-0 win in front of their own fans, with Gonzalo Garcia scoring in the first half before Mbappe set up Bellingham to double their lead late on.

After the match had finished, Bellingham began shaking hands with the opposition players before doing likewise with his own team-mates - just as Mbappe was doing.

But as Bellingham walked towards a group of players containing Mbappe, David Alaba and Alvaro Carreras, he suddenly turned away and walked in the other direction.

And as Bellingham and Mbappe walked back towards the dressing rooms, the England midfielder simply jogged past his team-mate without acknowledging him.

Mbappe addresses Arbeloa feud speculation

Mbappe would later conduct post-match interview duties, and didn't hold back in addressing both speculation surrounding his Real Madrid future and the exact nature of his relationship with head coach Arbeloa.

"I'm 100 per cent fine," he said (via Marca). "I haven't played because the manager told me I'm the fourth-choice striker in the squad behind [Franco] Mastantuono, Vini and Gonzalo.

"I was ready to start, it's his decision and you always have to respect it. I'm not angry."

After saying he had a 'great relationship' with previous boss Xabi Alonso, who was sacked in January, Mbappe added: "I have no problem with Arbeloa. You have to respect him.

"You have to accept the coach's philosophy, and I have to do my best to play ahead of Vini, Gonzalo and Mastantuono. I don't watch the manager's press conferences. At home, I have French television, not Spanish.

"Today, I came on and provided an assist for Jude, we won, and that's the most important thing. The most important thing is the eleven players on the pitch. They have to give everything for Madrid to win, because we're happier when we win."

The France striker was jeered by a small section of Madrid fans when he entered as a 69th-minute substitute, and explained: "We have to accept it. I think it's an opinion people are expressing. I don't think it should be taken personally.

"It's normal that when we haven't won, people choose players to boo. It's happened at Real Madrid, it's happened at every club in the world. I don't know what's so special about it. When we don't win, that's life."
