Real Madrid won thanks to Bellingham, however, this player was key to get the win.

Today the most important match of the season was played, at least in the Spanish League, as FC Barcelona faced Real Madrid at home, in a match corresponding to Gameweek number ten in La Liga.

After Real Madrid's agonizing victory in the 90th minute with Jude Bellingham's double, Real Madrid now assumes the lead in LaLiga with 28 points in 11 games played, followed by Girona, who has the same campaign, but loses the box by goal difference, +15 versus +12, respectively; In third place is FC Barcelona, with 24 points, and in fourth place is Atlético de Madrid with 22 points and on the lookout for the Blaugrana team. Fifth place goes to Real Sociedad, which stands with 18 points; the last two teams still without playing their commitments on the current day.

Although it might seem easy to deduce that the man of the match was Jude Bellingham, and that may not be incorrect, the reality is that for Carlo Ancaloetti, there is a man with even more merit than the English midfielder, and it is nothing more and nothing less than Luka Modric, the Croatian midfielder.

Today Luka Modric was one of the differentials in Real Madrid's approach and that was clearly seen in his entry and even the assist with which Jude Bellingham scored the second goal of his personal account, and in all the joy of the merengue team for the 2 to 1 final. The same coach mentioned that: "Luka has changed the dynamic because we had possession and Barça has lowered the pressure."
