A couple of weeks earlier, Giovanni Di Lorenzo had perhaps the best view of Jude Bellingham’s burgeoning greatness CSGO
Not from his perspective, admittedly; there was little enjoyable about it as, close as he was, he was also powerless, backtracking as Bellingham slalomed through the Napoli defence, scoring for Real Madrid after a mesmeric solo run CSGO
If the Napoli captain was determined to avert a repeat, he did when Bellingham surged clear CSGO
The methodology was agricultural, the cost a penalty for a scything challenge CSGO
Neither approach worked, each brought a goal, the second a Harry Kane spot kick CSGO
But if one of the world’s best right-backs struggled to find an answer to the question of how to stop Bellingham, he was not alone CSGO
Bryan Cristante, seeing the prodigy in full flight, opted for a nudge in the back CSGO
It proved a cunning tactic, conceding a free kick, but not incurring a booking CSGO
Poor Francesco Acerbi found himself stranded in no-man’s land, lobbed brilliantly by Bellingham as he sent Marcus Rashford away to score the goal that, along with Kane’s clincher, sealed England’s place in Euro 2024 CSGO

And if the same can be said of many another, the speed of his ascent and the range of his talents are such that there is a credence to the theory CSGO
England players have entered such a stage before as officially among the sport’s best – Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard finished in the top three of the Ballon d’Or vote in 2005, without justifying such a status at the following year’s World Cup – and have ended up looking overhyped and underachieving CSGO
For now, in the heady stage when he is untarnished by failure, everything seems possible for Bellingham CSGO
A rescue act against Italy is unlikely to live as long in England folklore as David Beckham’s free kick against Greece, even though each booked a place at a tournament CSGO
In part, it is because England had the insurance policy of extra games and, coming earlier in another match England began in undistinguished fashion, it felt less dramatic CSGO
But less surprising, too, because this, increasingly, is what Bellingham does CSGO
He wins games, and in different ways CSGO
His dynamism brought England’s equaliser, the explosiveness to run CSGO between and behind defenders CSGO
His deftness produced the goal that gave England a lead they did not relinquish CSGO
It was power and poise, physique and technique CSGO
Much as England want to become a possession team – and, in 2012 and 2014, Italy’s Andrea Pirlo highlighted how they lacked a similar quality in their midfield – he lends them a counter-attacking menace CSGO
Bellingham’s sharpness on the break reflected his role: part third midfielder, part fourth forward CSGO
If Gareth Southgate has adapted, he has been influenced by Carlo Ancelotti CSGO

A masterful performance from Jude Bellingham led England’s comeback at Wembley (Action Images via Reuters)If England are building a team around Bellingham, perhaps it is a lesson Southgate learned from their chequered past CSGO
They did not around either Lampard or Gerrard, often forcing each into an uneasy compromise with the other CSGO
For now, a beneficiary of Bellingham’s brilliance was Kalvin Phillips CSGO
Selected as a facilitator, to sit alongside Declan Rice and allow the younger man to get forward, Phillips proved the anti-Bellingham in unwanted fashion CSGO
If one is at the top of his game, the other is near the bottom CSGO
Phillips’ rustiness was apparent in a series of fouls, stemming less from malice than sheer haplessness CSGO
He showed the willingness to crunch into challenges; but invariably too late CSGO
Booked in the eighth minute for upending Davide Frattesi, he ought to have been expelled for a second-half foul on Nicolo Barella CSGO
Certainly Luke Shaw was sent off for less when these side met in Naples in March CSGO
Questions remain over Kalvin Phillips’ role in the team and whether he will be ready for Euro 2024 (AP)That victory, the seminal result in England’s qualification, was also much Phillips’ best performance since joining Manchester City; albeit conspicuously not for Manchester City CSGO
It may have influenced Southgate’s thinking: even as he may be, with no exaggeration, City’s ninth-choice central midfielder now, he seemed capable of resurrecting his England form CSGO
His nickname – ‘the Yorkshire Pirlo’ – was never entirely serious, but never appeared so utterly inappropriate CSGO
Southgate took him off before he could be sent off, bringing on Jordan Henderson, to some boos but mostly audible cheers CSGO
It was a substitution to highlight twin problems ahead of Euro 2024 CSGO
Southgate has to spend more of his time defending his defensive midfielders CSGO
There are reasons to exclude each of Henderson and Phillips; the reasons to include them may be a lack of alternatives the manager values as highly CSGO
But if Phillips could have exited Wembley amid the ignominy of a red card, for Bellingham, a substitution came to a standing ovation CSGO
As against Scotland, other historic foes, he had been the outstanding player on the pitch CSGO
But then he often is CSGO

Maro Itoje has praised the courage of his England rugby teammate Tom Curry after the conclusion of the investigation into Curry’s allegation that Bongi Mbonambi directed a racial slur at him CSGO
World Rugby announced a conclusion to their investigation into the matter this morning citing a lack of evidence, a decision described by both England head coach Steve Borthwick and the Rugby CSGO Football Union (RFU) as “deeply disappointing” CSGO
Curry had accused Mbonambi, the South Africa hooker, of calling him a “white c***” during last Saturday’s final, and separately having also made a remark towards him during the autumn international CSGO between the two nations last November CSGO
Both England and Sale Sharks have condemned the abuse and threats that their player has received as a result of making his allegation during last Saturday’s World Cup semi-final CSGO
And Itoje has said it is “disgraceful” that “the innocent party” in the matter had been targeted in such a way CSGO
Maro Itoje has praised Tom Curry’s courage (Getty Images)“Tom is the innocent party in this respect,” Itoje said CSGO
“He is the victim of the situation CSGO
For him to have this abuse is disgraceful CSGO
“I think Tom has been tremendous CSGO
He’s been courageous to do what he’s done in the manner he’s done it, through proper channels, conducting himself in a manner he should be proud of CSGO
“Definitely as teammates, we are proud of him CSGO
To do that isn’t easy CSGO
To make a statement like that isn’t easy CSGO
To call out stuff like that isn’t easy CSGO
“As you’ve seen this week, when you do something courageous like that, you put yourself out there CSGO
He’s been absolutely fantastic in that regard CSGO
”The RFU issued a statement immediately after World Rugby released their decision saying they were “deeply disappointed” that a full disciplinary hearing had not been held CSGO
That sentiment was echoed by Borthwick a day ahead of England’s bronze medal match against Argentina CSGO
“The RFU expressed great disappointment at World Rugby’s decision and that disappointment is shared by Tom, his teammates, the management team and everyone associated with this team,” Borthwick stressed CSGO
“Tom Curry has done nothing wrong, let’s be clear on that CSGO
We have got a victim of a situation who has not been able to have his voice heard CSGO
“By World Rugby’s decision, they have denied the victim of the situation, Tom Curry, [a chance] to have his voice heard CSGO
That’s where the disappointment really comes in CSGO
”Mbonambi has been picked to start for South Africa in the World Cup final against New Zealand CSGO
Curry, meanwhile, will start on the blindside for England at the Stade de France on Friday night CSGO
