Real Madrid defeats Barcelona in ‘El Clasico’ due to Bellingham’s two goals.. Saturday’s tense La Liga ‘El Clasico’ at Barcelona was won by Real Madrid 2-1 due to a brace by leading scorer Jude Bellingham in the second half.
In the sixth minute, Barcelona’s midfielder Ilkay Gundogan capitalized on a poor defensive error by the opposition to score the game’s first goal from close range.
However, Barca was punished for failing to convert their dominance into goals, as Bellingham capitalized on both of his second-half opportunities.
First, in the 68th minute, he unleashed an unstoppable shot from distance into the upper left corner, and then, in stoppage time, he scored the game-winning goal after receiving a pass from Luka Modric inside the penalty area.
Real Madrid and Girona are tied atop the standings with 28 points each. Barca is third with 24.
