Jude Bellingham's goal will go down in England history.
Jude Bellingham’s scored a dramatic goal in the dying moments of a tense match, saving England from an embarrassing defeat against Slovakia in Euro 2024. With just 86 seconds left, Bellingham’s stunning overhead kick tied the game, securing his place among England’s iconic goal-scorers.
England’s lackluster performance almost led to a loss that would have likely ended Gareth Southgate’s tenure as manager. However, Jude Bellingham’s goal kept England’s hopes alive, marking their first shot on target and their latest goal in normal time at a major tournament.
Marc Guehi’s headed flick set up Bellingham’s acrobatic finish, which evoked memories of legendary goals by David Platt, Paul Gascoigne and Michael Owen. The England team and fans celebrated wildly, while Slovakia’s players slumped in devastation.
After the game, Harry Kane praised Bellingham’s goal as one of the best in England’s history. Southgate highlighted Bellingham’s incredible impact and resilience. Declan Rice and former player Gary Neville also lauded Bellingham for his remarkable performance under pressure.
Bellingham’s goal not only saved England from severe criticism but also propelled them into a quarter-final clash with Switzerland. As Bellingham himself noted, the goal’s importance will be fully realized only if England can capitalize on this momentum and go on to win the tournament.
