English footballer, Jude Bellingham blew the roof off after scoring a 95th-minute winner for Real Madrid during a La Liga match against Getafe on Saturday, September 2.
This was Madrid’s first home game of the season at its renovated Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, which has a retractable roof.
Before the game started, Madrid members of Spain’s Women’s World Cup-winning team were welcomed onto the pitch at the newly-renovated Bernabeu with a guard of honour from both sides.
However, the hosts got off to a poor start when Getafe took the lead 11 minutes in through Borja Mayoral. The former Real forward capitalised on a poor back-pass to break forward and slot the ball past Kepa Arrizabalaga.
Rodrygo had a chance just minutes later, firing a shot over the bar, and Madrid were awarded a penalty in the 24th minute when Bellingham was fouled in the area, but VAR overruled the decision.
David Soria was forced to make a great save from Luka Modric’s diving header, tipping his effort over the bar. Joselu sliced an effort wide and the forward had another great opportunity to level but Soria saved again.
Joselu found the net two minutes into the second half to equalise after Getafe were unable to clear the ball and the Spain international smashed the ball home first-time.
Substitute Toni Kroos then had an excellent opportunity to double the hosts’ lead, but his shot thundered off the post, and Dani Carvajal was subsequently denied by the woodwork.
Soria stepped in again to make saves from Joselu and Rodrygo, but Bellingham continued his stunning start in the Spanish capital with a last-minute winner.
The 20-year-old took advantage after Soria spilled the ball to roll it into the bottom corner, scoring his fifth league goal of the season since joining from Borussia Dortmund in the summer.
Jude Bellingham’s first goal at the Bernabeu means he has scored in every game so far this season, and is La Liga’s top scorer with five goals.
He has now joined a small group of players to have netted in each of their first four Liga matches, including Madrid’s all-time record goalscorer Cristiano Ronaldo.
