Jude Bellingham scored his first club goal of the season on Saturday to end a drought that had lasted almost six months.
The former Borussia Dortmund player netted 23 goals for Madrid last season but had gone 14 games without scoring prior to this weekend's La Liga clash with Osasuna at the Bernabeu.
Bellingham ended his dry spell in style with a cheeky lobbed finish that appeared to suggest that he had not lost any confidence despite his poor run of scoring form.
He ran onto a long-range through pass from Raul Asencio before calmly lifting the ball over the keeper's head with his first touch.
The goal was a product of something Thierry Henry recently claimed Bellingham was doing too much during Madrid games.
Relief for Jude Bellingham! 🏴
