Red-hot Ivory Coast star Diomande scores stunning goal in Real Madrid win over Racing Santander

Ivory Coast international Yan Diomande continued his remarkable scoring form for Real Madrid after finding the back of the net in their La Liga encounter against Santander on Sunday, November 1.

The highly-rated youngster was among the standout performers at the El Sardinero Stadium as the Spanish giants took on Santander in their Matchday 11 fixture of the 2026/27 La Liga campaign.

Having established a commanding 2-0 lead, Real Madrid continued to put pressure on their opponents, with Diomande joining the scoring party in the 36th minute to make it 3-0.

The 19-year-old demonstrated his attacking quality by taking advantage of a defensive mistake from the Santander backline. After a poor clearance fell into his path, the Ivorian winger wasted little time in unleashing a powerful right-footed effort from the edge of the penalty area, sending the ball into the top-right corner beyond the reach of the goalkeeper.

It was another moment of brilliance from the young attacker, whose impressive displays have increasingly made him an influential figure in José Mourinho’s squad.

Diomande’s latest effort takes his tally to four goals and three assists in his last six appearances for Real Madrid, giving him an impressive seven goal contributions during that period.

His recent performances underline his growing confidence and attacking influence, with the youngster demonstrating an ability to both score goals and create opportunities for his teammates.

Before Sunday’s encounter, Diomande had already delivered outstanding performances against Leipzig and Sevilla, scoring once and providing an assist in each fixture.

He also registered an assist against Roma before finding the back of the net against Villarreal, maintaining an impressive run of contributions across competitions.

The Ivorian’s consistency in recent weeks will be encouraging for Mourinho, who will be counting on his attacking quality as Real Madrid continue their pursuit of domestic and European honours.

At just 19, Diomande is steadily establishing himself as one of the exciting young attacking talents in the Madrid squad, with his latest goal further strengthening his growing reputation.
