The English national soccer team, led by head coach Gareth Southgate, came from behind to win 2-1 against Slovakia in the round of 16 of the Euro 2024 at Arena Aufshalke in Gelsenkirchen, Germany on the 1st (Korean time). England lost a point to Ivan Schranz in the 25th minute and were taken 0-1. England, which had been heavily defeated, managed to revive in the second half. Bellingham's dramatic equaliser came out. The game led to extra time. England, in the mood, ended the victory with Harry Kane scoring.
England are considered the strongest contenders for this tournament. However, he has been sluggish throughout the tournament. He only recorded one win and two draws in Group C of the group league. It was regrettable against Serbia (1-0 win), Denmark (1-1 draw) and Slovenia (0-0 draw). There was a flurry of criticism. He also lost the first point on the day, but succeeded in turning the mood around by reversing the victory or defeat.

Bellingham is the biggest star of the tournament. Bellingham, who was born in 2003, is a top star who plays as a starting player not only for the national team but also for his team Real Madrid (Spain). Last year, he moved from Dortmund (Germany) to Real Madrid and recorded a transfer fee of 103 million euros, drawing attention.
Bellingham immediately settled the situation in the controversy directed at him. Through personal social media (social network service), 'It was a joke for close friends. I have nothing but respect for Slovakia' He also included a handshake emoji next to the post.
Meanwhile, after the game, Southgate said "All the players who put in did their part. This is the spirit we have. It would be easier for a young team to move the ball faster, but we showed patience. Sent in a long throw-in at the end, and the two players moved well to make the ball. We want to be better." England have not achieved any significant results in major tournaments since winning the 1966 World Cup in their own country. I aim to win the championship in this competition.
