Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has joined fans, pundits and fellow teammates in praising midfield talent Jude Bellingham. The 19-year-old has been one of the standout performers for England at the World Cup and was influential once again in the 3-0 win against Senegal.
The Three Lions secured their place in the World Cup quarter-finals last night, setting up a huge clash against reigning world champions, France. Bellingham grabbed the assist for Henderson's opener before the Borussia Dortmund star played a key role in Harry Kane's goal on the stroke of half-time.
Arsenal's Bukayo Saka sealed the win with a third goal in the second half, allowing Gareth Southgate to hand a number of key players an early rest ahead of the quarter-finals on Saturday, December 10. Roy Keane and Gary Neville lauded Bellingham for his performance against Senegal, claiming he has the qualities and abilities of a 26-year-old world-class midfielder.
