Bellingham Receives “Best Player in the World” Praise After Winning El Clasico for Real Madrid

• Real Madrid secured a victory against Barcelona with Jude Bellingham's spectacular equalizer and a dramatic 92nd-minute winning goal
• He has found the net in an impressive 13 out of 13 appearances for Los Blancos
• Bellingham's goals ensured Madrid moved above Girona on goal difference at the top of La Liga

Jude Bellingham earned widespread acclaim for his decisive performance in Real Madrid's debut El Clasico showdown against Barcelona.

The Englishman's two second-half goals facilitated an impressive comeback victory for Los Blancos over their perennial rivals at the Estadi Olympic Lluis Companys on Saturday afternoon.

Despite facing some level of criticism for his limited impact during his side's sole defeat this season against Atletico Madrid, Bellingham effectively silenced his detractors during what is arguably the most significant fixture in club football.

Following Ilkay Gundogan's opening goal in the first half, it initially seemed that the White Angels might face yet another setback against their Clasico adversaries.
