After winning the Champions League and La Liga with Real Madrid, Bellingham has become a serious contender for the Ballon d'Or. However, after leaving the Galaxy Battleship, Bellingham failed to continue his supergiant performance in the European Cup, although he opened his goal account early, but his performance in the three group games was quite struggling, and he was even criticized by fans for being too expressive.

On this match day, the 1/8 finals of the European Championship continued, and England also welcomed the challenge of Slovakia. The two sides have met six times in the past, with England having the absolute upper hand with five wins and one draw. Schlanz took the lead in this game, Foden's goal was blown, Bellingham saviored the whistle in the 95th minute, Kane won in extra time, and England turned the tables 2-1 to reach the last eight.

Southgate continued to use the unsuccessful 4-2-3-1 system in the group stage, with Jordan Pickford continuing to be the starting goalkeeper, Kieran Trippier still playing at left-back, with Guehi, John Stones and Walker at the back, Manchester United's rising star Maynu gaining trust and partnering with Rice in a double midfield, the front trio still had Bellingham as the midfielder, Foden and Saka were separated on the left and right, and Kane was on the front alone.

Fans didn't buy Southgate's line-up, thinking he was too stubborn, knowing that Foden and Bellingham didn't call, but still letting the two start together, and continuing to ignore Palmer, who was in excellent form, was really speechless.

After the start of the game, although England dominated possession, Slovakia's defensive counter-attack was bloody. Just four minutes into the game, Haraslin calmly split the ball in front of the penalty area, and the follow-up Hanzko cut in on the left, and the ball slid past the goal, and the Three Lions escaped.

In the 7th minute, Bellingham crossed diagonally from the right, Foden leaked the ball, Kieran answered at the back point, and when no one was marked, he actually kicked the ball into the stands and directly helped the opponent clear the siege. In the 12th minute, there was another huge hole in the England back, Haraslin was in a no-man's land, all the way to the box, but the goal was missing the crosshairs, Trippier cleared in front of the goal line in time.

In the 22nd minute, there was a controversial penalty on the field, Bellingham broke through on the left side and crossed, Foden grabbed the point in front of the goal and fell to the ground, and the referee signaled that there was no problem, causing dissatisfaction among the England generals. In the 25th minute, Slovakia launched an attack with a long pass, Guehi made a mistake in the struggle, Strelec smiled and accepted the gift, the front of the penalty area was just right, Schlanz inserted the outside instep and pushed the shot, 1-0!

The 30-year-old shone at this tournament, scoring three goals in four games, levelling Musiala and Mikotaze for the top scorer's spot. England enjoyed almost 80 per cent possession throughout the first half, but none of their five shots were on target, the last time this was the case in a major tournament was at the 1986 World Cup.

After returning to the pitch, England took the initiative to speed up, and in the 49th minute, Kane retreated to split the ball, Kieran Trippier cut in a cross from the left, and Foden outflanked the goal in the middle, but the Manchester City prince was offside, and the Three Lions rejoiced. In the 78th minute, Foden crossed from a set-piece from the left, Kane rushed to the top and missed a good chance again.

In the 81st minute, Rice made a cold arrow from outside the penalty area, but was ruthlessly rejected by the post, and Kane followed up with a follow-up shot. However, in the 95th minute, England went on a throw-in attack, Guehi struggled to head the ball in the penalty area, Bellingham took off and scored with a barb, staged a whistle-blowing equalizer, and dragged the game into extra time!

As the saying goes, if you don't die, there will be a blessing, just one minute into extra time, Eze swept a kick from outside the penalty area, Ivan Toney headed in front of goal, Kane relayed the goal, England 2-1 to achieve a comeback.

In the end, England reversed Slovakia 2-1 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the European Championship without danger, continuing the hope of winning the championship.

Next up for England will be Switzerland, and after watching the latter's elimination of Italy, it is believed that the Three Lions will not dare to slack off.
