Champions League
Bellingham scored against Napoli and was reminiscent of Cristiano Ronaldo and Karebe
Jude Bellingham is only the third player, after Karebe and Cristiano Ronaldo, to score in his first two Champions League games for Real.
Real pulled off a great one-two as they beat Napoli 3-2 in the derby at the top of Group Three. Bellingham was one of the protagonists of the Merengues, scoring an assist and a goal.
The England midfielder made history when, along with his goal against Union, he became the third player to score in his first game for Real in Europe’s top club competition.
The first to do so was Christian Karebe in 1998 and the second was Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009. Bellingham has only been with the Merengues for a few months but he is already making a name for himself.
