Former Stourbridge junior Jude Bellingham said he was hitting back at the “rubbish” being spoken as he rescued England’s Euro 2024 campaign with a stunning last-gasp overhead kick equaliser against Slovakia.
The Real Madrid man had struggled to make an impression on the last-16 tie in Gelsenkirchen as England looked set to be heading home before his moment of inspiration, with Harry Kane then heading home in extra time to secure a 2-1 win.
“It’s very difficult when you talk in press conferences and interviews to talk as openly as footballers want to because they’re always judged. “Having to listen to all the rubbish, feeling like you have let a nation of people down. In one kick of the ball, everything can change.” “People talk a lot. You do have to take it personally a little bit. We work so hard at this game. We come in every day, we work hard to put on a performance for the fans, sometimes it doesn’t go well and sometimes it feels like there’s a bit of a pile on, it’s not nice to hear.Bellingham believes his goal and the ensuing comeback can now inspire England at Euro 2024, with Southgate and his players heavily criticised for their performances in Germany so far.
