Midfielder Jude Bellingham scored a spectacular overhead kick for England in their Euro 2024 Round of 16 match against Slovakia, securing extra time for his team, where they eventually claimed victory.

The 21-year-old Real Madrid player equalized at 94 minutes and 34 seconds, setting a record for the latest goal ever scored by the England national team in European Championship history. This goal was also England's first shot on target in the match.

For Bellingham, this was his second goal of Euro 2024, the first being scored during the group stage match against Serbia (1-0). Additionally, this marked Bellingham's third goal in major tournaments, having previously scored against Iran in the 2022 World Cup.

With this goal, Jude Bellingham has equaled Frank Lampard's record of three goals in European Championships and World Cups, matching Lampard's tally from Euro 2004.
