Did you know there was a time when Jude Bellingham wasn’t synonymous with last-minute heroics? It’s hard to imagine now. Since arriving at Real Madrid, the English midfielder has turned stoppage time into his personal stage, delivering game-winning moments with an almost supernatural sense of timing.
Some players score late goals. Bellingham scores the kind that defines seasons, silences stadiums and makes grown men believe in destiny. From domestic scraps to European epics, he has made the impossible routine, a habit of standing tallest when it matters most.
These are his greatest late winners—the goals that made Madridistas fall in love, broke rivals’ hearts, and added to the legend of a No. 5 who seems born for the big stage.
Here Are Jude Bellingham's Late Winners for Real Madrid
6. 90+5' - Real Madrid 2-1 Getafe (2 Sep, 2023)
Under the closed roof of a newly renovated Santiago Bernabéu, with the rain hammering down outside, Jude Bellingham did what he was quickly becoming famous for—arriving when it mattered most. After 95 minutes of frustration, near-misses, and heroic goalkeeping from David Soria, Real Madrid’s talisman found himself in the right place at the right time.
A long-range strike from Lucas Vázquez was spilled by Soria and like a predator pouncing on its prey, Bellingham reacted first, bundling the ball over the line. The Bernabéu erupted. Four games, five goals, and already a player who felt destined to wear white.
5. 90+4' - Real Madrid 1-0 Union Berlin (20 Sep, 2023)
Just when it seemed like Union Berlin had survived the Santiago Bernabéu’s siege, Bellingham arrived—again—right on cue. In the dying embers of stoppage time, a chaotic scramble in the box saw Federico Valverde’s shot deflect off a sea of red shirts before landing at Bellingham’s feet.
With the instinct of a poacher and the composure of a veteran, he prodded the ball home, delivering Los Blancos a last-gasp 1-0 victory in their Champions League opener.
It was his sixth goal in six games, another defining moment for a player who was wasting no time stamping his authority on the Spanish giants. Madrid had battered at the door all night and just when frustration threatened to creep in, their new No. 5 found a way.
4. 90+1' - Barcelona 1 - 2 Real Madrid (28 Oct, 2023)
The clock ticked past 90, tension thick in the Catalan air when fate—and a fortunate deflection—handed Jude Bellingham his moment. Barcelona, having led since the sixth minute, had been pegged back by the Englishman’s thunderbolt in the 68th, but now, into stoppage time, the Bernabéu’s newest hero struck again.
A loose ball in the box, a predatory instinct, and a simple tap past keeper Marc-André ter Stegen sent the away end into delirium. Bellingham’s first Clásico had already been memorable; with this last-gasp winner, it became legendary.
3. 90+2' - Real Madrid 3-2 Barcelona (21 Apr, 2024)
The Bernabéu had held its breath all night, dragged through a Clasico that twisted and turned like a script too wild to be believed. Twice, Barcelona had led. Twice, Madrid had clawed their way back.
But in the 92nd minute, with the title race hanging in the balance, Jude Bellingham arrived. Lucas Vázquez surged down the right, his low cross zipping through the chaos.
And there, at the far post, Madrid’s No. 5 lurked—calm, poised, inevitable. One swing of his boot, and the ball rocketed into the roof of the net. The stadium exploded. A fourth straight Clasico win. An 11-point gap at the top. The kind of moment that turns a great signing into a legend.
2. 90+5' - Valencia 1-2 Real Madrid (3 Jan, 2025)
On a tense night at Mestalla, Jude once again proved to be Madrid’s hero, sealing a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory deep into stoppage time. Valencia had taken the lead through Hugo Duro’s opportunistic strike in the first half, and Madrid’s hopes looked bleak when Vinícius Júnior saw red in the 79th minute.
Even after Bellingham squandered a penalty, Madrid refused to relent. Luka Modric’s late equaliser reignited belief, and then, with the clock ticking into the 97th minute, Bellingham stepped up. Surging into the box with ice-cold composure, he slotted home the winner, delivering another decisive moment in his fairytale debut season.
1. 90+2' - Man City 2-3 Real Madrid (11 Feb, 2025)
For a moment, it seemed Manchester City had done just enough. Erling Haaland’s brace had them edging toward a hard-fought victory, only for Real Madrid to remind the world why they own the Champions League’s greatest comebacks.
With the clock winding down and City clinging to their lead, former City man Brahim Díaz pounced on a rebound in the 86th minute to level the score. But the real heartbreak for City came in stoppage time. A loose pass from Mateo Kovačić put Rico Lewis under pressure, allowing Vinícius Júnior to steal in and lift a cross toward the far post. And then came Jude Bellingham.
Timing his run to perfection, the England star muscled ahead of John Stones and guided the ball past Éderson in the 92nd minute, sealing an unforgettable 3-2 win for Madrid. The Etihad fell silent, save for the roars from the away end.
