The wait is finally over for Jude Bellingham as he scored his first goal for Real Madrid this season.

Bellingham, who scored five goals in his first four LaLiga games for Los Blancos last term, had been uncharacteristically goal shy to start the 2024/25 campaign.

But he broke his goal drought that had lasted 12 games in sensational fashion as he latched onto a perfect ball from centre-back Raul Asencio and lofted it over Osasuna goalkeeper Sergio Herrera.

The England international was evidently relieved to have scored as he gave Madrid a two-goal buffer, having earlier provided the assist for Vinicius Junior's opening strike.

Bellingham then kissed the badge and showed off his trademark celebration.

It was debutant Asencio who received the adulation of his teammates, though, for the stunning pass from inside his own half.

The 21-year-old was making his debut as an early substitute in place of Eder Militao, who had been stretchered off with a serious-looking knee injury.

Asencio's assist also made him the third-youngest Spanish defender to provide an assist for Real Madrid in the last 11 years.
