Bellingham matches Real Madrid Champions League record

Jude Bellingham equalled Real Madrid’s Champions League record by scoring in three consecutive matches in the competition.

The England international netted yet another goal for Real Madrid as he doubled his team’s lead against Braga in the Champions League on Tuesday. Bellingham received a pass from Vinicius Jr. on the edge of the box and slotted home through the bottom corner.

The 20-year-old has now scored in all three Champions League matches for Los Blancos this season and also provided an assist in the club’s 3-2 win over Napoli in their last game. The only other Real Madrid player to achieve this feat was Christian Karembeu, who scored in three consecutive matches in the continental competition during the 1997/98 season.

The former Dortmund star has been in sublime form in the ongoing season having scored 11 goals in 12 appearances for the Madrid-based club.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side will now prepare for the season’s first El Clasico as they take on arch-rivals Barcelona in La Liga on Saturday.
