The best in the world? Jude Bellingham sparks debate after latest England masterclass The Independent says In the celebratory aftermath of England’s qualification for Euro 2024, Jude Bellingham was in little mood to qualify his opinion. The Real Madrid midfielder just went out and said how Gareth Southgate’s side deserved the win over Italy because they were the “much better” team. There was no diplomacy there, just a striking stridency. It created a very different mood to the last time a match between the two teams led to a tournament qualification, amid scenes that received a new prominence recently due…

Jude Bellingham, England’s perfect 10, can light the torch at Euro 2024 The Guardian says The “Bellingham burst” has a certain ring to it. With almost half an hour played Wembley had shown its first signs of descending into an unnervingly familiar tetchiness, a groundswell of dissatisfaction brewing as England’s defenders passed the ball in front of a static midfield. Italy had begun as if resigned to be bullied but now, a goal up and with palpable wind in their sails, they appeared to have Gareth Southgate’s players where they wanted them. This Azzurri side are a pale imitation of…

The former West Ham striker Gianluca Scamacca’s first international goal had given the reigning European champions a surprise lead inside the first 15 minutes on their first return to Wembley since beating England on penalties in the Euro 2020 final. But Harry Kane’s penalty after Bellingham was brought down in the box…

Kane and Rashford seal England spot at Euro 2024 with comeback win over Italy The Guardian says The jeopardy had long since ended in terms of whether England would qualify for the European Championship in Germany next summer. It was merely a question of when and where. The answer was here and there was a symbolism about who they beat to do it – the champions, Italy, who they intend to dethrone. Gareth Southgate had wanted a performance as much as a result; England only needed a draw – something to bolster the collective belief. The manager got it. There…

Euro 2024 qualifiers: Italy vs England preview – how to watch, Team News Italy vs England is set to be a pivotal game for the Euro 2024 Group C qualifier on Tuesday. England will secure qualification if they win. The last time these two teams faced each other under the Wembley Arch was the 2020 Euros final – where Italy won on penalties.
