On a night of outstanding tryouts, Jude Bellingham’s late strike against Belgium salvaged a well-earned draw for England in the last game before Gareth Southgate’s Euro 2024 selection.

A high-stakes test was in store for the absentee-Һit runners-up of Euro 2020 three days after their late loss to Brazil, when the squad ranked third in FIFA’s world rankings hosted the team ranked fourth.

After Youri Tielemans punished errors in the first half following Ivan Toney’s penalty, England looked about to lose again at Wembley, but Bellingham managed to secure a 2-2 draw in stoppage time.

Before Southgate picks an extended Euros squad on May 21, Toney performed admirably in his first start, as did fellow full debutants Ezri Konsa and, particularly, 18-year-old Kobbie Mainoo in the final friendly.

After a night of both promise and issues, which began with John Stones hobbling off and Tielemans taking advantage of a mistake by Jordan Pickford in a horrifying first eleven minutes, the England manager has much to chew on.

Toney scored the penalty he won to tie the score shortly after, but Jarrod Bowen’s first international goal was disallowed for offside as England rallied.

Romelu Lukaku brilliantly crossed for Tielemans to head Belgium back ahead after Lewis Dunk’s misguided effort to cut out a long ball allowed Southgate’s team to maintain their good play.

After the interval, England came out firing, but it appeared as though they would lose until Bellingham’s stoppage-time goal.

After a night that began with Stones hobbling off, much like Manchester City teammate Kyle Walker had done against Brazil, Southgate’s joy was evident.

England’s poor start worsened as they let up a preventable first goal.

Pickford, who is usually so dependable with his kicking, watched as Everton teammate Amadou Onana cut off a low cross forward, and Tielemans deftly fired low past the flabby goalie.

It was evident how relieved the embarrassed England captain was when Toney leveled in the 17th minute.

Mainoo played into Bellingham with such understanding and confidence that the Brentford striker’s ball through resulted in a poor Jan Vertonghen challenge.

Sebastian Gishamer, the referee, signaled the spot, and Toney skillfully sent Matz Sels the wrong way.

Jeremy Doku, a substitute, got by Joe Gomez to test Pickford as Belgium rallied, but England were significantly more dangerous than they had against Brazil.

Bowen glanced in a header after Bellingham’s cross was expertly cleared and Dunk nodded on a Phil Foden corner, but the VAR disallowed his first England goal for offside.

Bellingham mysteriously shot past at close range as remarkable In the 36th minute, the visitors were penalized for a huge miss when Mainoo won the ball deep within Belgium’s zone.

When Tielemans attempted to play a diagonal ball forward, Dunk fell to ground in an attempt to stop Lukaku from reaching it.At the Bernabéu, Spain and Brazil draw after goals from Rodrygo and Endrick.

Our stadium hosted a friendly match with the starting lineups of Vini Jr., Rodrygo, and Carvajal, with the theme being “The same skin.”

In a friendly match held at the Santiago Bernabéu under the banner “The same skin,” Spain and Brazil were unable to draw. The campaign aims to increase the dedication to combating racism and viоlence in football. Spain started out well, taking the lead after just 12 minutes when Rodri converted a penalty kιck after Lamine Yamile was pulled down in the box.

Half an hour had passed when Dani Olmo made it 2-0 with some outstanding solo play. Prior to halftime, Rodrygo capitalised on a pass from Unai Simón and surpassed the goalkeeper with a stunning chip to increase the lead to 2-1.

Three goals in the second half

When the teams took the field for the second half, Brazil made a charge and tied the score at 50′ when Endrick scored after receiving a pass from a corner. After Carvajal was hauled down in the Brazilian area with 87 minutes remaining, Rodri converted another penalty kιck to make it 3-2. However, there remained an opportunity for additional spectacle when Paquetá scored from 12 yards on the opposite end to seal the 3-3 victory in the end.

In the friendly competition final held in Cairo, Croatia was led by Luka Modrić and defeated the organizers, Egypt. Playing all 60 minutes of the match, the Madrid player assisted twice.

After six minutes, Egypt took the lead through Rabia, and 15 minutes later, Vlasic tied the score by latching onto a Modrić ball. Petkovic made it 1-2 on 57′ thanks to another Real Madrid star’s assist. The Croatians’ lead was increased by Majer (86′) and Kramaric (77′), and Abdelmonem made it 2-4 in ιnjury time.
