The 20-year-old midfielder rushed toward the fans behind the objective and contacted his ear with his passed close by prior to opening his arms to pause dramatically. "I'm talking now," Bellingham seemed, by all accounts, to be saying.
The objective got his count to 14 objectives his initial 15 games for Madrid since his €103million (£89.4m; $112.7m) move from Borussia Dortmund this mid year, outperforming club legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Alfredo Di Stefano — both of whom scored multiple times in a similar number of matches.

However, the British chap's most recent strike and brand name festivity covered what might have been his most troublesome night since showing up in Spain.
On November 5, in Madrid's goalless draw against Rayo Vallecano, Bellingham tumbled to the ground with a disengaged left shoulder. In spite of the fact that he played on for the rest of the game, the injury constrained him to stop after an electric beginning for his new side.
It was something La Liga's protectors had neglected to do, however the shoulder issue — which Bellingham had previously endured at Dortmund — implied he was on the seat against Braga in the Bosses Association and not involved by any means against Valencia.
Britain actually hit him up for the worldwide break, yet he was precluded when he showed up at their instructional course. From that point forward, Bellingham had been attempting to beat the odds to be good for the outing to Cadiz.
"In another situation, we would need to be more cautious with him," said a club representative before the game, "however we are in a conflict economy and he will venture out to Cadiz." That was a reference to Madrid's seven central members who were out harmed: Thibaut Courtois, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Eder Militao, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, Arda Guler and Vinicius Junior.
That implied Bellingham began at the Nuevo Mirandilla arena in spite of having finished only two instructional meetings with the principal group. A massive piece of shoulder security was noticeable much under his shirt all through the match.
Similar to the case in his last instructional meeting, which was available to the press, Madrid's No 5 was in steady contact with the specialists, physiotherapists and training staff, who watched out for his shoulder.
Bellingham began as a left going after midfielder, yet that didn't prevent him from showing up all over the place — as the touch map shows underneath.
In something like 14 minutes, he had joined Rodrygo in hustling upfield prior to offloading to the Brazilian forward. Rodrygo delivered a fine completion subsequent to evading a couple of safeguards.
Bellingham arranged Madrid's assaults through the center, making three effective spills, winning 10 duels and finishing 95% of his passes (60 out of 63) preceding being removed for Lucas Vazquez on 78 minutes.
He seemed agreeable, with three backheel passes showing his expertise, however on the stroke of half-time, his shoulder injury posed a potential threat.
Ledesma felled him in a 50-50 and some Madrid fans could have dreaded just terrible. Then, at that point, during a free kick, Bellingham fell inside the crate and tried not to put his left arm down prior to getting up.
From that point on, the Madrid midfielder was mindful so as not to move his harmed shoulder excessively. With Cadiz protector Lucas Pires before him at a corner, Bellingham concealed his abandoned arm his back to try not to be gotten. He even offered his right arm to colleagues rather when they went to welcome him.
From the celebrity enclose Cadiz, Madrid's recently selected privileged president and notorious player Jose Martinez Sanchez, all the more usually known as Pirri, watched on intently. Bellingham was nearly copying him: Pirri played the European Cup Victors' Cup last against Chelsea in 1971 with a wrecked arm, which Madrid lost after a replay.
"He had and has the issue," Madrid lead trainer Carlo Ancelotti said after the Cadiz game. "However, with the security, he is fine. So he played a generally excellent game today."
Bellingham possibly left the pitch when the game was settled, following a second objective from Rodrygo and the midfielder's own work. He had made a bold tackle to forestall a perilous Cadiz possibility and delivered three recuperations as he assisted his group with finishing a troublesome week on a high.
There was one more first for Bellingham as he cleared a path for Vazquez: an enormous piece of the home group rose up to commend him. While he has scored 10 objectives out and about, he had not been perceived like that away from the Santiago Bernabeu previously.
At the last whistle, and with a pullover behind him security, he emerged to thank every one of the fans for their help — including the Cadiz loyal.
Rodrygo had scored two times and given a help, however the cameras knew who the star was, by and by.
