Sixth consecutive victory

Victory for Real Madrid at El Sardinero. Mourinho’s side defeated Racing in the first match of November, securing their sixth consecutive win across all competitions. Our team, superior and demonstrating excellent collective work, took the lead in the first half with a penalty goal by Mbappé, another by Bellingham, and a spectacular volley by Diomande with his right foot. In the second half, although the madridistas had several chances to extend their lead, the scoreline remained unchanged.

Madrid took the initiative from the start. Arda Güler tried to open the scoring in the seventh minute with a beautiful first-touch shot from a Trent pass that skimmed the post. Three minutes later, it was Bellingham's turn when he headed a precise cross from the Turkish player, but the rival goalkeeper saved it on the line. Immediately afterward, Prati brought down Mbappé in the box, and the Frenchman converted the penalty to make it 0-1 (11’). In the next play, Iker Luque almost equalized the match after collecting a ball at the edge of the box and firing a shot that Courtois skillfully saved.

Bellingham and Diomande’s stunning goal
Our team sought to increase the lead and achieved it in the 21st minute thanks to Bellingham. Arda Güler delivered a fantastic pass behind the defense, the Englishman advanced from midfield, dribbled past Agirrezabala, and scored the 0-2 with ease. The team was relentless, and Yan Diomande also wanted to make his mark, just as he did against Leipzig. He found himself with a rebound at the edge of the box after a corner and, with a powerful right-footed volley, sent the ball into the top corner for a spectacular goal (36’). The madridistas had several chances to score the fourth goal, but the match went to halftime with a 0-3 scoreline.

In the second half, Racing responded and had more offensive presence, although without creating clear danger. Around the hour mark, our team had its first chance, with a double opportunity for Mbappé. First, he connected with a long-range shot that hit the post, and then another that went high. Bellingham also tried with a shot from the side of the goal after a pass from Güler, but Agirrezabala saved it in two attempts. In the 71st minute, Munuera Montero awarded a penalty upon the assistant's suggestion for a handball by Tchouameni in a challenge with Prati. VAR intervened and overturned the decision after reviewing the monitor, determining it was unintentional as he was attempting to play the ball. Racing kept pushing, and Madrid looked for the fourth goal. Bellingham scored in injury time, but the goal was ruled out for offside. Ultimately, three well-deserved points for our team.
