Real Madrid showcased their dominance once again as they cruised to a comfortable 3-0 win against Cádiz in their 16th consecutive visit to Andalusia. Led by the impressive performances of Rodrygo Goes and Jude Bellingham, Los Blancos displayed a seamless combination of efficient counter-attacking and spellbinding offensive play.

Rodrygo Goes stole the show with two goals, including a mesmerizing solo effort to break the deadlock in the first half. The Brazilian prodigy's display of individual brilliance highlighted his growing importance within the team. Additionally, Bellingham contributed to the scoreline with another poacher's finish, extending his remarkable record of scoring 14 goals in his first 15 appearances for Real Madrid.

Bellingham's goal-scoring prowess has already surpassed that of renowned club legends, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Alfredo Di Stéfano, and Pruden Sánchez. His ability to consistently find the back of the net has made him a crucial asset for the team. Despite the relatively modest expected goals (xG) value of 0.07 for his latest goal, Bellingham's positioning and clinical execution demonstrated his remarkable ability to seize opportunities.

Rodrygo's brilliance was evident not only in his goal-scoring prowess but also in his exceptional dribbling ability. His opening goal showcased his incredible speed and precision as he expertly maneuvered through four Cádiz defenders, leaving them puzzled and helpless. This goal also marked his fifth goal in his last three appearances, solidifying his growing presence in the Real Madrid frontline.

In addition to their goal-scoring exploits, both Rodrygo and Bellingham displayed a strong connection on the field, resulting in significant threats on the counter-attack. Rodrygo's influence extended beyond scoring goals, as he created the most chances in the game, including an assist for Bellingham's goal.

While Real Madrid put on a dominant display, concerns were raised about the performance of their full-backs, Dani Carvajal and Ferland Mendy. Both players struggled in their duels, with Carvajal failing to win a single one and Mendy only winning one. This vulnerability on the flanks highlighted the potential weakness of Real Madrid's diamond midfield shape. Carlo Ancelotti, the manager, may consider rotating options on the defensive flanks when facing Napoli in their upcoming fixture.

Real Madrid's convincing victory has further solidified their position as a dominant force in Spanish football. With Rodrygo and Bellingham leading the way, Los Blancos continue to exhibit their title aspirations in the ongoing season.
