For all the understandable talk of a talent-stacked roster around this England squad, one man stood tall at Euro 2024.
From their opening night against Serbia, to a wonder goal in the last minute of normal time in the Round of 16 against Slovakia, Jude Bellingham has rescued England not once, but twice.
An overhead kick with the Three Lions on the brink of a last-16 exit kept England alive in Gelsenkirchen, as they looked to be heading home early at 1-0 down deep into injury time.
It was a pivotal moment in this campaign, as England went on to reach the final where they ultimately lost to Spain despite a Bellingham assist for Cole Palmer.
