By Can Erozden

Real Madrid made a solid start Saturday to the Spanish LaLiga, beating Athletic Bilbao 2-0 in an away match.

English star Jude Bellingham scored on his competitive Real Madrid debut in the victory at Bilbao's San Mames Stadium.

Playing in the center of the pitch, Bellingham, 20, joined Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund this summer.

Rodrygo, Real Madrid's Brazilian winger, scored the opener in the penalty area in the 28th minute before Bellingham's volley doubled the gap.
