As Jude Bellingham stepped off the pitch, his thoughts were far from the disappointment of England's 0-0 draw against Belgium in the European Championships. The young midfielder, who had started for the Three Lions at just nineteen years old, saw the game not as a missed opportunity but as a stepping stone towards greater success. "We need to keep things in perspective," he said in an interview with Eurosport after the match. "It's important to remember that it's only one game, and we still have plenty of chances to progress in this tournament. Everyone will be negative about it, but we can't let that get to us. We need to stay focused on our goals and keep working hard as a team." Bellingham's words were a reminder that football is a marathon, not a sprint. And with the Euros still wide open, England had every reason to believe they could go all the way.
