The former Dortmunder Jude Bellingham’s stunning performance led Real Madrid to their second win in the second game of the new season in the Spanish league.
The 20-year-old Englishman, who switched from BVB to the Royals this summer for 103 million euros, scored the first two goals (19th minute and 60th) in the 3-1 (1-1) away win at UD Almería his team himself. The third goal by the Brazilian Vinícius Júnior (73rd) prepared Bellingham.
The hosts at the Estadio de los Juegos Mediterráneos took the lead in the 3rd minute through Sergio Arribas. But Madrid, with German pros Toni Kroos and Antonio Rüdiger in the starting XI, then turned the game around. Kroos also played his part in this, the 2014 world champion presented Bellingham’s second goal, which is well worth seeing. It was his 63rd assist in the Spanish top flight.
