Racing Santander 0-3 Real Madrid: Mbappé, Diomandé and Bellingham score in LaLiga win

On November 1, 2026, Real Madrid beat Racing Santander 3-0 in Santander in a LaLiga 2026/27 match, with goals from Mbappé, Yan Diomandé and Bellingham securing the victory.

The win moved Real Madrid to third in the LaLiga table and kept pressure on leaders Barcelona, who are three points clear. The result followed Madrid's El Clásico victory; the club made only two changes for the trip to Santander, with Vinícius Júnior serving a suspension, Yan Diomandé retained in the side, Thibaut Courtois returning in goal and Trent Alexander-Arnold called up at right-back. Racing Santander have 11 points from 10 games, sit 15th and are one point above the relegation zone, having won three of their eleven matches since the season began.

Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 11th minute to give Real the lead, Yan Diomandé doubled the advantage with a goal in the 35th minute, and Bellingham added the third to complete the 3-0 victory.

Mbappé's penalty extended his scoring run and added Racing Santander as the 24th LaLiga opponent he has found the net against; the goal was recorded as his 12th in LaLiga and his 15th in all competitions this season.

Yan Diomandé's contribution came amid Vinícius Júnior's suspension; Diomandé now has four goals and four assists in 14 appearances for Los Blancos, a tally the club noted as a substantial contribution to José Mourinho’s team.

Real Madrid extended their winning run with the result in Santander and narrowed the deficit to Barcelona after the earlier El Clásico victory; the report recalled that Madrid had been nine points behind Barcelona before that win reduced the gap.

The victory leaves Real Madrid third in LaLiga and maintains the three-point cushion with leaders Barcelona, preserving Madrid’s pursuit of the top spot in the 2026/27 title race.
