Bellingham Shines as Real Madrid Beat Manchester United
In Houston’s pre-season face-off, Real Madrid claimed victory over Manchester United, with a scoreline of 2-0. One of the highlights was Jude Bellingham’s remarkable goal, marking his debut for the Spanish team. After being acquired from Borussia Dortmund for a whopping $114 million in June, the English sensation wasted no time in making his presence felt, netting a sublime goal in the mere sixth minute. Set up perfectly by Madrid’s Antonio Rudiger, Bellingham demonstrated pure finesse by chipping the ball over United’s Andre Onana.

Close Calls and Missed Opportunities
While Vinicius Jr. came close to doubling Madrid’s advantage, a missed shot from close range kept United’s hopes alive. In response, the Red Devils almost evened the score when Marcus Rashford took a shot from a narrow viewpoint, narrowly missing his mark.
Tensions Rise Before Half-Time
The match wasn’t just about goals and missed opportunities. As Real Madrid dominated the play, tensions soared. A reckless challenge by Lisandro Martinez on Bellingham sparked an on-field altercation. Bellingham’s fiery response was palpable, resulting in Martinez receiving a yellow card.
Madrid Seals the Deal
Post half-time, Manchester United displayed a renewed vigour. Despite their efforts, it was Real Madrid who continued to threaten, with Militao nearly pushing the lead to two goals. However, the defining moment arrived during the game’s closing minutes. Lucas Vazquez expertly set up veteran striker Joselu, who executed an impeccable overhead kick, sealing Madrid’s win with a 2-0 score.
