Bellingham saved England at the death before Harry Kane sent them into the last eight.
John Stones believes Jude Bellingham’s great escape act can be the “turning point” in England’s attempt to “create history” by winning Euro 2024.
Harry Kane went on to secure England a 2-1 extra-time triumph – a last-gasp win that breathes new life into a side that now take on Switzerland in Saturday’s quarter-final in Dusseldorf.Asked if the great escape made the team feel like anything is possible, Stones said: “Yeah, 100 per cent. “There’s a great picture of us celebrating that goal and all the bench are off, all of the staff in the stands are up off their seats. It just shows that unity, that togetherness as a team.
They have yet to get near the standards they have played at in their three previous major tournaments under the former defender, with Stones wanting to both entertain and win. “And I think we should take great confidence from that – that’s something that’s not easy to do, especially in a high pressure game.
“The biggest thrill for me that I can get out of playing is that winning feeling, to create history for us as a nation, for everyone back home,” said Stones, who downplayed issues over strapping on his right knee.“For me personally and the lads to do something that has never been done before and win this trophy.
