Jude Bellingham has been showered in praise by some of England’s most prominent pundits after starring in the Three Lions’ 3-0 win over Senegal.
England booked their place in the quarter-finals against defending champions France after recovering from a shaky start to beat Senegal. The Africa Cup of Nations champions started brightly and fashioned three good chances before England responded.
Bellingham was central to their comeback, charging forward from midfield to tee up Jordan Henderson to make it 1-0. He was involved again as Harry Kane blasted in on the counter-attack, before Phil Foden crossed for Bukayo Saka to dink over Edouard Mendy and make the game safe.
