Jude Bellingham’s impressive debut goal for Real Madrid and a stunning scissor kick by Joselu condemned Manchester United to a 2-0 defeat in Houston.
In only his second appearance for Real Madrid, Bellingham scored with a beautiful finish against his former admirers from Manchester United.
The goal came in the sixth minute when Antonio Rudiger set him up, resulting in a delightful clipped finish from 18 yards out. While there were questions about offside, the quality of the touch and finish left no doubt about Bellingham’s abilities.
Bellingham’s first goal for Real Madrid was a thing of beauty, dinking it over Onana on his Man Utd debut.

Throughout the game, Madrid held sway under the closed roof of the NRG Stadium. Their goalkeeper, Andre Onana, made a composed debut, impressing with his saves. However, he was eventually beaten by Joselu’s brilliance late in the match. The former Stoke and Newcastle striker executed an acrobatic scissor kick, leaving Onana with no chance to stop the spectacular strike.
