Borussia Dortmund star Jobe Bellingham received a red card during the match against Freiburg
Bellingham received a direct red card, further complicating his situation at Dortmund
The 20-year-old midfielder started for Niko Kovac’s side but had a challenging afternoon in Freiburg.
He was sent off just 53 minutes into the match following a defensive error.
Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel attempted a risky pass to the Under-21 international, who was positioned dangerously.
Freiburg's Philipp Treu seized the opportunity and reached the ball first in Dortmund's half.
Bellingham attempted to dispossess Treu but ended up committing a foul just outside the penalty area.
The referee determined that the hosts were denied a clear goalscoring opportunity, resulting in a direct red card for the Real Madrid superstar's brother.
Treu would have been one-on-one with Kobel had he not been fouled.
The central midfielder followed in his brother’s footsteps by joining Dortmund in an initial £27 million deal from Sunderland last summer.
However, the younger sibling has struggled to make a significant impact on the pitch amid ongoing speculation regarding his difficulties adjusting off it.
So far this season, Bellingham has recorded only two assists in 22 appearances across all competitions.
Now, the versatile midfielder faces a likely suspension following his red card in Freiburg.
