Jude Bellingham has scored a brace in Real Madrid's win over Osasuna - and once again milked in the appreciation of the Bernabeu faithful.
The England midfielder has taken La Liga by storm since arriving from Borussia Dortmund this summer.
While Bellingham's goalscoring abilities were regularly on show throughout his time in Germany, it's fair to say that not many predicted him to have such a strong start in Madrid.

In fact, the 20-year-old has already matched his league tally from the entirety of last season, netting eight times in eight games.
His second goal perhaps typified everything good about the midfielder. Picking the ball up from 30 yards out, he glided past one defender before laying the ball off and shifting beyond the backline.
Bellingham then applied his finish with aplomb, slotting the ball between the legs of the Osasuna goalkeeper.

It wasn't to be a hat-trick for the midfielder, as he was taken off on 72 minutes, but Real did extend their advantage to 4-0 through Vinicius Junior and Joselu.
After his second goal, he was serenaded by the Bernabeu faithful to the tune of the iconic song 'Hey Jude'.
And as Vinicius ran in to make it 3-0 to Ancelotti's side, Bellingham was spotted already celebrating before the Brazilian winger scored.

The win means Real go back to the top of the La Liga table, ahead of surprise early pace-setters Girona.
Michel's side had won six of their seven games before a 3-0 defeat to Los Blancos last weekend, but went back to the top for a short period earlier on Saturday when they won 1-0 at Cadiz.
After Bellingham scored a sublime solo goal in the 3-2 Champions League win over Napoli on Wednesday, even Ancelotti was taken aback by his new signing's performances.
He explained: "What is surprising about Bellingham is that he is only 20. It feels like he's 30.

"For his character, his personality. He is always focused on the match, he knows what he needs to do, and this is rare in a 20-year-old player.
"Then you have all his quality, his physical strength, his skills. It is surprising, we are all a bit surprised."
