Mick Jagger attends 'clasico' soccer game, as Real Madrid rallies past Barcelona
Jude Bellingham won't forget his first "clasico" match as the England midfielder scored two goals including a stoppage-time winner to lead Real Madrid to a 2-1 comeback victory at Barcelona in the Spanish league on Saturday.
They were Bellingham's 12th and 13th goals in 13 games in all competitions since he joined Madrid this summer, including a Spanish league-leading 10 goals in 11 rounds.
Barcelona went ahead in the sixth minute through former Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan's first goal for his new club. The hosts also hit the woodwork twice before Bellingham equalized.
Bellingham was kept in check by Barcelona's Gavi Paéz until he found space well outside the box to unleash a strike in the 68th that swerved past Marc-Andre ter Stegen and hit the corner of the net.
Bellingham then tapped in the stoppage-time winner when a deflected ball fell to him in front of the net.
Madrid remained top, level on points with second-place Girona. Barcelona is in third place at four points back.
The game was attended by Mick Jagger, as Barcelona had aligned with The Rolling Stones for Saturday's game. Jagger showed up to see the home team wear special shirts featuring the iconic logo of his legendary rock group.
Jagger and fellow Stones member Ronnie Wood were in attendance at Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium, where Barcelona is playing this season while Camp Nou is being remodeled.
Barcelona's players wore special shirts for the game featuring the Rolling Stones' iconic "hot lips" logo in place of its normal shirt sponsor. The shirts were also on sale.
Also, before kickoff Barcelona displayed a mosaic of burgundy and blue along with a huge Rolling Stones logo.
Barcelona, which has a sponsorship deal with audio-streaming service Spotify, has worn special shirts for recent "clasicos" featuring the logos of Spanish pop star Rosalía and Canadian rapper Drake.
The "clasico" game between the Spanish powerhouses is a must-see soccer game in Spain and abroad.
