Real Madrid snatch dramatic El Clásico victory with Jude Bellingham's late winner
Los Blancos edge closer to La Liga title after thrilling 3-2 win
Bellingham's left-footed strike in stoppage time seals triumph
Real Madrid moved a step closer to securing a record-breaking La Liga title with a dramatic 3-2 victory over arch-rivals Barcelona on Sunday. In a pulsating El Clásico encounter, Jude Bellingham emerged as the unlikely hero, scoring a stunning left-footed strike in stoppage time to secure all three points for Los Blancos.
Barcelona raced into an early lead, but Real Madrid quickly responded with an equalizer from Karim Benzema. The Catalan giants regained the advantage through Robert Lewandowski, but again Real Madrid hit back through Rodrygo Goes.
With the match seemingly destined to end in a draw, Bellingham produced a moment of brilliance, cutting inside from the left before unleashing a powerful shot into the far corner. The goal sparked wild celebrations at the Santiago Bernabéu, as Real Madrid moved eight points clear of Barcelona with just five games remaining.
Real Madrid's victory was all the more impressive considering they were without several key players due to injury. Bellingham's performance was particularly impressive, as he filled in admirably for the suspended Luka Modrić. The English midfielder showed his versatility and composure under pressure, proving himself to be a true big-game player.
Barcelona, meanwhile, will be left to rue their missed opportunities. They enjoyed plenty of possession and created several chances to score, but were ultimately unable to make the most of their dominance. The defeat leaves them seven points adrift of Real Madrid with just five games remaining, and effectively ends their hopes of winning La Liga this season.
