Bellingham’s superb strike strengthens Real Madrid’s advantage

Jude Bellingham extended Real Madrid’s lead against Racing Santander with an outstanding finish, after Kylian Mbappe had opened the scoring for the Spanish side.

The second goal came at the end of a swift counter-attack. Mbappe collected the ball in midfield before finding Arda Guler, who played a well-weighted pass through the Racing Santander defence as Bellingham made his run from deep.

Bellingham carried the move into the final third and, from outside the penalty area, lifted the ball over the advancing goalkeeper Agerizabala. The effort had enough height and precision to find the net, leaving Mantilla unable to get back and clear it.
