Jude Bellingham scored a 'Puskas Award worthy' goal for Real Madrid against Napoli in the Champions League.

The European heavyweights have made the trip to Italy to face the Serie A champions in one of the clashes of the night in Europe - and Bellingham has once again made his mark.

And it has not disappointed with three first-half goals as Napoli took the lead through Leo Ostigard before Vinicius Jr equalised.

But there were fireworks to come as Real Madrid took the lead through Bellingham - and it was an absolute cracker.

Picking up the ball from the midfielder third, the 20-year-old burst towards goal with brilliant speed and strength.

As he made his way into the box, the England international put the ball through Ostigard's legs before tucking it past Alex Meret.
