Jude Bellingham has compared his stunning overhead kick to Cristiano Ronaldo's effort for Real Madrid – but believes the Portuguese talisman's strike was far superior.

England were seconds away from exiting Euro 2024 in humiliating fashion on Sunday, only to squeak past Slovakia and into a fourth successive major quarter-final under Gareth Southgate, thanks very much in part to Bellingham.

The Real Madrid star, who turned 21 the day before the last-16 clash, came to the rescue with a 95th-minute overhead kick against their well-drilled opponents before Harry Kane sealed a 2-1 extra-time win.

Bellingham feels like he very much tapped into his Real Madrid DNA after revealing like he felt like Los Blancos legend Ronaldo, who scored an unforgettable overhead kick against Juventus in Champions League quarter-finals in the 2017-18 campaign.

However, when talking about the overhead kick itself, the former Borussia Dortmund midfielder was critical of his own technique when he finally got to watch it back before giving one reason why Ronaldo's effort was better than his.
