Real Madrid continued their impressive run of form in LaLiga after a convincing 3-0 win over Racing Santander on Sunday, November 1, 2026, at Estadio El Sardinero.
The victory marked Real Madrid’s sixth consecutive win across all competitions, keeping them firmly in the title race and within three points of league leaders Barcelona.
Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham and Yan Diomande were on target as José Mourinho’s men delivered a dominant first-half performance to secure all three points.
Real Madrid started the encounter on the front foot, putting the hosts under pressure with their attacking intensity and possession.
Their early dominance paid off in the 11th minute when Matteo Prati brought down Mbappé inside the penalty area, prompting referee José Luis Munuera Montero to award a penalty.
The French forward stepped up and confidently converted from the spot to give Madrid a 1-0 lead.
Racing Santander attempted to respond almost immediately, but goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois produced a crucial save to deny Iker Luque and preserve Madrid’s advantage.
Real Madrid continued to dictate proceedings and extended their lead in the 21st minute through Jude Bellingham.
The England international capitalised on a brilliant through ball from Arda Güler, raced into the penalty area and calmly finished past Racing goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala to make it 2-0.
The goal further strengthened Madrid’s control of the encounter, as Racing struggled to contain the visitors’ attacking movements and creative combinations.
Madrid completed their first-half scoring in spectacular fashion in the 36th minute.
Following a corner-kick situation, Yan Diomande collected the ball outside the penalty area and unleashed a powerful right-footed volley into the top corner, leaving the Racing goalkeeper with little chance.
The stunning strike gave Real Madrid a comfortable 3-0 advantage heading into the break and capped an impressive attacking display.
Racing Santander returned for the second half with greater attacking intent, seeking to reduce the deficit and revive their chances.
However, Real Madrid remained defensively organised while continuing to threaten on the counterattack.
Mbappé came close to scoring his second goal around the hour mark, striking the post, while Bellingham also had opportunities to extend Madrid’s lead.
Racing were awarded a penalty in the 71st minute after an apparent handball by Aurélien Tchouaméni, but the decision was overturned following a VAR review.
Despite late attempts from both sides, Real Madrid maintained their three-goal advantage until the final whistle.
