Atlético beat their beloved neighbor.
Álvaro Morata wildly fanned his 3–1 goal. PDO
Jude Bellingham had started his Real Madrid career explosively.
The superstar who scored six goals had already been selected as the league’s player of the month for August. Earlier in the week, the Englishman settled the Champions League match with his winning goal in the last minute.
But it wasn’t until Sunday that the real test lay ahead: the first home game of Madrid’s career.
The 20-year-old Bellingham had previously played four times in the Ruhr derby (between Borussia Dortmund and Schalke) and had not lost any of them.
However, Metropolitano offered shock treatment for the entire amount.
First, in the fourth minute, Atlético Samu Lino centered the ball Álvaro Morata in the head, and this one inoculated his former employer with a strong butt.
After a quarter of an hour, it was their turn Saul and Antoine Griezmann. However, the route was exactly the same: a cross from the left and a great finish on top.
Toni Kroos the reduction at the end of the opening period was ultimately just an anecdote, because right after the break Morata headed home the hosts’ third.
Listen to the attached from the linkhow Álvaro Morata’s 3–1 goal is explained on the radio channel Cadena Ser.
It was confusing that David Alaban and by Antonio Rüdiger led by Real Madrid’s central defense left a hectare of space in front of their own goal.

Atlético, who took a 3-1 home win, clearly revealed that the Whites’ package is not in order. The ease of the main game goals proves that the roles of the players are not clear, and the communication between them is not working.
The first defeat of the season also derailed Real Madrid from the top of La Liga.
