Jude Bellingham is rolling for Real Madrid, and things may only get tougher for the 20-year-old midfielder.
After scoring his sixth goal in six games, Bellingham handed the La Liga champions a 1-0 win over Union Berlin in their opening game in Group C, ESPN reported.
With his streaking showing, club captain Jose Ignacio Fernandez or Nacho is raving. He believes that Jude Bellingham was born to play for Los Blancos.

"I think Jude was born to play for Real Madrid," club captain Nacho said via AS.com. "We're lucky to have him here with us. Let's hope he keeps scoring goals."
It was the second time that Bellingham lifted Real Madrid to a win. Last September 2, the English footballer lifted the Los Blancos over Getafe, 2-1, Reuters reported.
"We were patient," the prized midfielder stated. "We knew we'd get chances at the end of the game. We had to move the ball, find spaces. We kept going, we showed a great mentality, great togetherness."
As of this writing, Jude Bellingham has already amassed six goals this season. Under Borussia Dortmund last season, the talented midfielder had 14 goals.
More goals ahead for Bellingham
At the rate he is going, Bellingham is in a good position to surpass his number of goals with Los Blancos.
Real coach Carlo Ancelotti will likely look forward to that, utilizing Bellingham in a different way to maximize his goal-scoring potential.
"Bellingham has quality, that's very important, and he has luck," Ancelotti said in the post-game via Goal.com. "This goal was similar to the one against Getafe. He always arrives at the right time. He's smarter than the rest."
