ENGLAND took the lead against Serbia BEFORE Harry Kane touched the ball.
The Three Lions‘ record scorer has often been the man to fire his country to victory.
But England have another goalscoring sensation in their camp at Euro 2024.
Bukayo Saka raced down the right wing and his deflected cross sat up perfectly for Jude Bellingham to steam in and meet it with his head.
The Real Madrid phenom was on target after just 13 minutes as Gareth Southgate‘s men started their campaign firing on all cylinders.
And the Three Lions chief will be delighted to have somebody to take some of the burden off Kane’s shoulders.
One fan commented: “Just hand us the trophy now, c,mon England.”
Another added: “Who else but Jude Bellingham? This is the face of England.”
A third commented: “Welcome To The Jude Bellingham Euros.”
Bellingham, 20, has taken centre stage in adidas’ new Euro 2024 advert.
