SPANISH giants, Real Madrid, won their Friday night La Liga encounter away to Celta Vigo 0-1.
Los Blancos dug deep to go past a dogged Celta side all thanks to yet another goal by new signing, Jude Bellingham.
Celta should have gone 1-0 up through Larsen as early as the 3rd minute, but for the intervention of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR).
The first half ended 0-0, but Los Blancos will rue the half as they lost Vinicius Junior to injury early on to cap a frustrating night.
The match served as a debut for new signing from Chelsea, Kepa Arrizabalaga in goal, and he gave a good account of himself by all standards.
Rodrigo should have given Madrid the lead, but missed his spot kick in the 68th minute.
Despite Celta Vigo’s beat efforts, the breakthrough finally came for Madrid in the 81st minute after Bellingham nodded home a Joselu cross from close range, his goals flowing like a fountain.
The win makes it a perfect 3 wins in 3 matches for Carlo Ancelotti’s team as the top the La Liga standings.
