The story behind it

Bellingham's goal ended a run of seven matches without scoring for the club. Mourinho, Real Madrid's coach, was asked about the Ballon d'Or result before the Racing match and said he was surprised by where Bellingham finished. The Ballon d'Or is the annual award for the best player in soccer, and the 2026 winner was Harry Kane. Teammate Kylian Mbappé scored a penalty in the same match.

The background

MADRID, Oct. 21 — Real Madrid beat Racing Santander 3-0 at El Sardinero on Sunday. Bellingham scored the club's second goal, ending a run of seven matches without a goal. Kylian Mbappé had scored a penalty earlier, and Yan Diomande added a third goal after 36 minutes.

The goal gave Bellingham 50 goals for Real Madrid, the most by any English player in the club's history. David Beckham and Laurie Cunningham were tied on 20 goals for second place among English players. The win kept Real Madrid close to Barcelona and Atlético Madrid in the LaLiga title race, with three points separating the three sides. Earlier that week, Bellingham was ranked outside the top 10 in the 2026 Ballon d'Or voting, which drew comment from coach José Mourinho.
