Roy Keane makes typically bold Jude Bellingham claim after England's win over Senegal

Roy Keane claimed Jude Bellingham has the maturity of a midfielder in his mid-twenties after watching the teenager help England beat Senegal to reach the World Cup quarter-finals.

Teenage star Bellingham had a part to play in England's first two goals. He provided the cross for Jordan Henderson to open the scoring, before starting the swift counter-attack which allowed Harry Kane to double the lead on the stroke of half-time.

England were never in danger after that, with Bukayo Saka adding a third to set up a last-eight meeting with reigning world champions France. Bellingham will be confident of another start against Les Bleus, and former Manchester United captain Keane was full of praise for the 19-year-old.
