  • The 14-time UCL winners were held for a significant part of the game
  • New signing Jude Bellingham again rescued the day for Los Blancos

The sound of the iconic song by the Beatles, Hey Jude, continues to dominate the airwaves in Madrid as Real Madrid’s new signing, Jude Bellingham, keeps on impressing for the 14-time UEFA Champions League winners.

The former Borussia Dortmund star has gotten off to a blistering start to life at the Spanish capital, and was once again in the thick of the action as he snatched victory for Carlo Ancelotti’s side at the death of the game.

Urs Fischers’ Union Berlin side were within touching distance of their first point in the Champions League after they provided stiff resistance to every attack of Los Blancos, as reported by Goal.

However, the 20-year-old England midfielder, who has found the back of the net five times in as many games for Los Blancos, had other ideas.

Latching on to a loose ball following a shot by Fede Valverde, the midfielder made it six goals in as many appearances.

Bellingham’s performance on the night again generated a flurry of reactions from fans of the Spanish giants.
