Bellingham is literally a genius on the pitch 
he's got skills for days 
i'm loving how Real Madrid are pulling away from Barca now, it's gonna be an interesting rest of the season 
real madrid played so well they deserved that win 
️ bellingham is a total boss 
his goals were insane how he scored them 
and benzema is still getting under barca's skin 
this el clasico will go down in history as one of the greatest ever 
what a thriller! I mean Real Madrid was on fire, their squad depth is insane 
but seriously though, Barcelona's defense just got torn apart out there 
Thibaut Courtois made some insane saves to keep it at 1-1 for so long. I'm loving this La Liga season so far, it's going to be a wild ride 
and let's be real, Real Sociedad is looking pretty strong too 
bellingham is literally a genius out there! he deserves all the praise for that performance 
real madrid needs players like him to compete with sociedad and barca, they're so lucky to have him on their team 
Ugh, I'm so done with how this forum is always hogging up all the good news stories like El Clasico matches! Can't we get some updates on our local communities or something? 
Real Madrid's victory was awesome and all, but can't we talk about the impact of gentrification in our city or the new coffee shop that just opened up? I swear, every single post is about football... 
My kid would be lucky to get a scholarship for college, let alone earn millions playing soccer. I swear, it's all about the benjamins now 
and benzema was there to support him all game 
it's clear they're a super strong team at the moment 
12 points behind real sociedad is huge gap to close and they need to figure out what's going on
