El Classico: Barca took the lead, but Bellingham drowned their hope! See highlights

Jude Bellingham once again proved to be the game-changer, securing a come-from-behind victory for Real Madrid in the season’s first Clasico on Saturday.

Bellingham, who has been in outstanding form since his summer move to Real Madrid, scored his first-ever Clasico goal.

Despite Barcelona taking the lead in the first half with Ilkay Gundogan’s strike, Bellingham levelled the match in the 68th minute by beating Marc-Andre ter Stegen and firing a shot into the top corner.

But Bellingham’s impact didn’t stop there.

The midfielder struck again in the late stages of the game, giving the hosts a 2-1 lead.

This goal marked a significant milestone as Bellingham became the first Englishman to score in this iconic fixture since Michael Owen did so for Los Blancos in 2005 at the Santiago Bernabeu.

With 13 goals and three assists in just 13 games for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, Bellingham currently holds the top position as La Liga’s leading goalscorer.

Real Madrid now enjoys a rare free midweek, allowing them to recuperate after a demanding schedule before they gear up to face Rayo Vallecano at home the following Sunday.
