Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric hailed their spirit after victory over Barcelona.

Real came from 2-1 down to win 3-2 with Jude Bellingham scoring in injury-time.

Modric told Real Madrid TV: "The win takes us closer to what we want, the league title. It was a great night and a great performance from the team. We never stopped believing. We went behind twice, but we kept pushing, playing well, pressing and in the end we came from behind again and again. It's a great night, like many at the Bernabéu.

"Apart from quality, of course, which you have to have, there's an incredible character and belief. This is not by chance any more. If it happens so many times, it's no coincidence. There's something about this team that pushes us forward. And with this crowd, like today, it makes everything easier.

"It's incredible. We're very happy and thankful to the fans. They've created a spectacular atmosphere. When you play at home with the crowd cheering you on like today, it makes everything easier. We have to thank the Bernabéu a lot."
