La Liga Santander Bellingham’s late goal seals El Clasico comeback win for Real Madrid

Real Madrid again gave their fans an evening to remember at the Santiago Bernabeu with a comeback in El Clasico on Sunday.

After advancing to the semi-finals of Champions League in Manchester, Ancelotti’s men once again drew on their DNA and turned around a game in which they were behind twice.

Goals from Vini Jr, Lucas Vazquez and Bellingham in the 91st minute secured the win for our team, increasing their lead over the blaugranas to 11 points with six games left to play in La Liga.Barcelona went ahead early on when Christensen headed in Rapinha’s corner (6′).

Madrid’s reaction came soon after, coming close to making it 1-1 two minutes later. Tchouameni put a lofted pass into the box, Modric headed wide and Vini Jr’s right-footed effort failed to find the target. The Brazilian came up with another chance soon after. This time it was with a deflected header from a Kroos free-kick.

Madrid were searching for an equalizer and, in the 18th minute, they got it. Lucas Vazquez drove to the byline, dribbled past Cancelo and was brought down by Cubarsi. The penalty was then converted by Vini Jr. to make it 1-1. The Catalans responded again from another corner (28′). Lamine Yamal whipped in an outswinging corner, Lunin cleared the ball off the line and the VAR, after a review, ruled that the ball hadn’t crossed the goal line.

Modric had the last chance of the first half following some nice link-up play between Rodrygo, Bellingham, Valverde on the edge of the area. The Croatian’s shot from inside the box was saved by Ter Stegen.
