JUDE BELLINGHAM silenced yobs who hurled a bottle at him after Real Madrid sealed a place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Real defeated rivals Atletico Madrid 4-2 on penalties on Wednesday in the second leg of their Last-16 encounter with Bellingham, 21, scoring from the spot before Antonio Rudiger secured qualification.
Los Blancos made it through despite a nervy encounter that saw the star midfielder's England team-mate Conor Gallagher tying the aggregate on 2-2 just a few seconds after kick-off.
Atletico couldn't add to their 1-0 lead and thus the crunch derby went to pens where Bellingham kept his cool to help the reigning European champions advance to the next round.
The ex-Birmingham star then led celebrations at the Metropolitano Stadium.
That didn't sit well with some home fans who started hurling objects at Bellingham and his team-mates.
But a viral clip caught the Real star maintaining his composure with a brilliant reaction that showed his true class.
The ex-Borussia Dortmund star saw a plastic bottle flying towards him and went on to head it away like he usually does on set pieces - a lot of which lead to a goal.
Bellingham's hilarious reaction and incredible resilience went viral with amazed fans storming social media.
One fan tweeted: "What a video!"
Another commented: "Absolute GOAT."
A third wrote: "Man redirected that bottle like it was a last-minute corner kick."
This fan said: "Craziest reaction by Bellingham."
And that one stated: "Legend!"
