🔥 El Clasico lights up Santiago Bernabéu! ⚽️🔥
Jude Bellingham was the hero, scoring the winning goal as Real Madrid edged Barcelona 2-1 on Sunday, stretching their lead to five points atop La Liga. Kylian Mbappé fired Los Blancos ahead, Fermin Lopez leveled for Barça, but Bellingham’s half-time strike proved decisive.
The match overflowed with tension: Barça’s midfielder Pedri saw red late on after a second yellow, while Xabi Alonso celebrated his first El Clasico win as Madrid coach, ending Barcelona’s perfect record against his side last season. 😱
After a derby setback against Atlético in September, Madrid have bounced back, winning nine of their opening 10 league games. Midfielder Aurelien Tchouaméni said today's match showed what the team can do and they have to keep this energy. 💪
On the other bench, assistant coach Marcus Sorg, standing in for the suspended Hansi Flick, remained optimistic: The season is long—28 games to go—and they’re not scared. 🌟
With confidence soaring, Real Madrid look unstoppable. Can they keep the momentum rolling in this epic La Liga race? Stay tuned! 👀
