Jude Bellingham\'s Goal Beats Barcelona, Likely Secures LaLiga Title 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Apr 22, 2024 2:40 am

Real Madrid all but clinched LaLiga with their 3-2 victory over Barcelona in El Clasico on Sunday. Real Madrid is 11 points clear with six matches remaining.

With the match tied at 2-2 as stoppage time began, Jude Bellingham scored on a pass from Lucas Vazquez at the far post. Bellingham has now scored 17 goals in LaLiga as he continues perhaps the best debut season for Real Madrid since Alfredo di Stefano. 

Both Real Madrid and Barcelona entered the match carrying the weight of their Champions League matches midweek. For Barcelona, they had an extra day of rest but had a disappointing result against Paris Saint-Germain. Real Madrid defeated Manchester City in penalties, but they played an extra 30 minutes and had one fewer day of rest.
