English midfielder Jude Bellingham continued his rich vein of form in front of the goal as his Real Madrid team thrashed Villareal 4-1 at the Bernabéu. Rodrygo added a second for the home team after an offside decision was overturned by a Video Assistant Referee (VAR), but Villareal's Jose Luis Morales halved the deficit after the break. However, the Yellow Submarine's hopes were short-lived as Brahim Diaz and Modric scored within four minutes of each other in the second half to seal the three points.
