BELLINGHAM DOUBLE ON CLASICO DEBUT SEALS DRAMATIC COMEBACK
Jude Bellingham lived up to his billing on El Clasico debut, bagging a stunning brace including a 91st-minute winner to write an impossible Real Madrid comeback and sink a determined Barcelona who were better for most of the game.
It was a game with lots of aggression but few chances, especially in the first half, and both goals seemingly came from nowhere with Ilkay Gundogan picking the perfect time to score his first goal for the Catalan club.
He gave Xavi’s side the lead just six minutes in after Aurelien Tchouameni inadvertently sent the perfect through-ball into his own box, and the German beat a despairing David Alaba to fire home.
Missing Robert Lewandowski, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong and Jules Kounde from the starting XI, a tenacious Barcelona had plenty of chances in the first half with Fermin Lopez hitting the woodwork, but Bellingham made them pay for those missed opportunities with 20 minutes remaining.
Moments after Tchouameni had hit the woodwork from range, Bellingham received the ball outside the penalty area and hammered an out swinging shot under Marc-Andre Ter Stegen’s top hand to equalise.
And just when the game seemed destined for a draw, old and new combined with Luka Modric accidentally feeding Bellingham who fired home for victory from point-blank range.

FULL TIME: BARCLEONA 1-2 REAL MADRID
But the cross bounces harmlessly through to the other side and THAT'S THAT!!! A seemingly impossible comeback from Real Madrid that was all down to one man - who else? Jude Bellingham, welcome to El Clasico.
LAST CHANCE SALOON
Ter Stegan's up for a last-gasp corner...
GOAL! BARCELONA 1-2 REAL MADRID
OH MY BELLINGHAM!!! He's hit the winner from close-range in his first El Clasico, Modric found him at point-blank range and he fired through Ter Stegen's legs.

FOUR MINUTES OF ADDED TIME
It's a hectic finale with neither team accepting the draw.
BIG CHANCE FOR REAL
Joselu had the perfect chance there after Vinicisu fed him beautifully inside the Barcelona penalty area, but couldn't get the ball out of his feet and Martinez just picked it off.
STAGE IS SET
We're set for a blockbuster final ten minutes or so in Barcelona, with both teams going all-out for the winner and leaving themselves open on the break.
Really can't call it at this stage.
ANOTHER BARCA CHANCE
Gavi's been one of the players of the match from both teams and nearly got a very well-deserved goal there. Barcelona are just hauling themselves back into the game despite having less than 45% possession this half and Gavi's latest effort just curls over.
LEWANDOWSKIIIII
He was teed up fantastically there, centrally just outside the penalty area, but Lewandowski can't make himself a super-sub as his shot flies just over.
PENALTY SHOUT
Camavinga hit the deck under pressure from Araujo but the referee says no and Barca can counter...

BARCELONA LOOKING RAGGED
The hosts had looked comfortable up until the goal but Bellingham's strike has just shaken them, Xavi's sending in two reinforcements attempting to reclaim that go-forward.

WE GO AGAIN
Barcelona had just been sitting back content in that lead, and the visitors weren't really able to fashion any scoring opportunities in the box.
Turns out you don't need any in the box when you've got Tchouameni and Bellingham, but Ter Stegen might well be disappointed with that one, it crept under his top hand to find the back of the net.
GOAL! BARCELONA 1-1 REAL MADRID
Can't prise them open... UNTIL NOW! And it's that man Jude Bellingham, who slams an outswinging shot into the top corner from 25 years out!!!

BARCELONA HOLD FIRM
Barcelona have dropped into a back five now with Cancelo at right-back, and Real Madrid still can't prise them open.
Eventually Tchouameni got bored and unleashed a thunderbolt from outside the box (England fans will have got some flashbacks there) that Ter Stegen could barely push onto the post.

HERE COMES ROB
The Barcelona faithful had hoped Lewandowski would be fit to start but he's in the game now for Ferran Torres - the big Pole would've been licking his lips at the chance Cancelo just squandered.
Speaking of the home fans, there's a season-record number of them in Montjuic Stadium today: 50,112.
