Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham scored twice and produced another masterful display in a 4-0 LaLiga home win over Osasuna on Saturday, with the England midfielder reaching an astonishing 10 goals in his first 10 starts for his new team.
Bellingham opened the scoring in the ninth minute with an unstoppable close-range strike and extended the lead in the 54th minute with a tidy finish between the goalkeeper's legs.
Vinicius Jr. scored the third following a quick counter-attack in the 65th minute and assisted Joselu who stroke home the fourth in the 70th minute.
The Spanish striker had the chance to add a fifth from the penalty spot in the 84th minute but failed to convert the opportunity.
Real moved on to 24 points from nine games, two ahead of Girona, who beat Cadiz 1-0 away earlier on Saturday. With a game in hand, Barcelona are third on 20 points and face Granada on Sunday.
