00:00Jude Bellingham scored his seventh goal of the season as Real Madrid moved top of La
00:04Liga with a comfortable victory over high-flying Girona.
00:08Joselu opened the scoring from a fabulous Bellingham pass before Aurelian Tuomini headed
00:12in the visitors' second.
00:15Bellingham completed the scoring with a smart second-half finish.
00:19The win lifts Madrid above Girona and Barcelona, who beat Sevilla on Friday.
00:23Girona, who topped the table going into the latest round of La Liga fixtures, started
00:28with a spring in their step and created two golden opportunities to take the lead.
00:33Yengel Herrera headed narrowly over the crossbar from a central position inside the area, before
00:38Viktor Sagankov struck the outside of the post from another free-header.
00:43Madrid gradually found their rhythm and eventually took the lead thanks to a marvellous piece
00:46of play from Bellingham, who picked out Joselu with the outside of his right boot to give
00:50the former Stoke and Newcastle forward an easy finish.
00:54Tuomini doubled Madrid's lead four minutes later after being left completely unmarked
00:58from Toni Kroos in's winging corner.
01:01The home side almost pulled one back five minutes into the second half, but Kepa Arrizabalaga
01:06was equal to David Lopez as header and Eric Garcia was unable to steer home the rebound.
01:11Bellingham got Madrid's third with 20 minutes remaining, finding the far corner after Paulo
01:16Gazzaniga had parried Joselu's initial effort.
01:19The 20-year-old is only the second player to score at least six goals in his first seven
01:24La Liga matches for Madrid this century, after Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.
01:29The game ended on a sour note for the visitors as Nacho was dismissed deep into added time
01:33for a reckless challenge on Porto, who left the field on a stretcher.
01:38Carlo Ancelotti's team travel to Napoli in their second Champions League group match
01:42on Tuesday.
