Barcelona lost to Real Madrid in the first Clasico of the season as Jude Bellingham delivered more brilliance with two second-half goals to win the game.
Barcelona won last season’s La Liga crown as they surged to their first league title since 2019 under Xavi. The champions were undefeated this season with seven wins and three draws, but this defeat leaves them trailing leaders Real Madrid by four points.
Madrid’s new signing Bellingham has made an astonishing start to life in the Spanish capital with 13 goals in his first 13 games for the club since arriving from Borussia Dortmund in the summer. The 20-year-old England star took centre stage in El Clasico, as Real Madrid laid down a marker in the race to win La Liga.

The cross comes in but it’s cleared away and that is that.
Bellingham has won it for Madrid!
The young Englishman writes the latest chapter in his dream start at Madrid. That’s now 13 goals in as many games to inspire a dramatic comeback for his side against Barcelona.
Gundogan’s strike had put Barca ahead but Bellingham’s long-range strike, followed by a deft finish in the 91st minute, means it’s the away side who have somehow come away with all three points.

GOAL! Barcelona 1-2 Real Madrid (Bellingham, 90+1 mins)
He’s done it again! The right place and the right time and Bellingham may well have won it at the death for Madrid.
The ball comes in from the right and a deflection off Modric lifts it over Martinez and into the path of Bellingham who bundles it past Ter Stegen at close range.
He’s not been involved for large parts of this game but his two moments of magic in his first Clasico have surely won it for Madrid!
