The Sun, a British popular newspaper, reported on the 3rd (hereinafter Korean time). It's a defense of Bellingham's controversial 'crotch ceremony'.
There is a basis. Real Madrid also had such a ceremony. He made this gesture to the crowd after the match against Barcelona in El Clasico. In other words, it was not a ceremony to insult the other person.
The Sun said 'Bellingham's goal celebration video a few months ago proves his gesture was not offensive to (Slovak).
Bellingham played an active role in the match between England and Slovakia in the round of 16 of Euro 2024 at Gelsenkirchen Arena Aufshalke in Germany on the 1st.
In the second half, trailing 0-1, he scored the equalizer with a fantastic bicycle kick. In the end, England won 2-1 to escape the elimination of the round of 16. Bellingham was the top contributor to the quarterfinals.
However, after scoring a goal, the ceremony became a problem later.
After sharing his joy with his teammates, he put his right hand on his nose on the way to his camp and immediately grabbed his 'center'. It was not a high-quality ceremony. In addition, the direction was towards the bench in Slovakia.
Therefore, critics criticized that it was an act to insult the Slovak team with a low-quality ceremony.
In the end, the Uefa came forward. The BBC reports that `European Football Federation investigates Bellingham's celebration. There is a possibility that he will miss the quarterfinals depending on whether he violates his dignity.
As the controversy grew, Bellingham began to evolve. On his SNS account, he wrote, `It was a joke about my friends in the stadium, and I respect Slovakia's performance.

England went all out to save Bellingham. England legend Gary Lineker said it makes no sense for UEFA to discipline Jude for his gesture.
British publication The Sun reported 'Bellingham made the same gesture when Real Madrid scored the winning goal in a 3-2 win over El Clasico against Barcelona in April. Bellingham scored the winner in second-half stoppage time and the Bernabeu crowd celebrated enthusiastically with their teammates in a frenzy. Since then, he has turned to the crowd and gestured to enthusiastic fans with his hands in front of his shorts 'There was no reaction in Spain's La Liga, and Bellingham has not been sanctioned. Therefore, if it is revealed that Bellingham has done such a ceremony before, the UEFA could be good enough.'
For England, it is very important whether Bellingham will play or not. England are playing much harder than the group qualifying round. The performance is hardly rising.
In particular, aggression is a problem. In the round of 16 against Slovakia, he is anxious enough to score a goal in the second half of the injury time. The first and second lines, including Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden, are the best in this tournament. There are the best midfielders in La Liga, top Bundesliga scorers and top Premier League wingers. However, there is no synergy. In the match against Slovakia, he also scored goals with his personal skills such as Bellingham and Kane. In other words, England's bad attack could be more problematic if Bellingham is absent from the quarterfinals. With the 400 already shaking, England's quarter-finals will be even darker if Belling Mom fails to make it.
