England Beat Mexico At The Iconic Estadio Azteca In The 2026 World Cup Round Of 16
A brilliant brace from Jude Bellingham helped England to a stunning 3-2 win against Mexico at the 2026 World Cup on Monday morning.
The Real Madrid ace netted both of his goals within 98 seconds whilst Harry Kane’s penalty ensured the ten-man Three Lions dumped out the co-hosts in their own backyard. Interestingly, it was El Tri’s first defeat at the Azteca in 13 years and their first World Cup loss at the legendary venue in 11 outings.
Jude Bellingham Stats: 2026 World Cup
Hailed as his finest performance in an England shirt, the media are running out of superlatives to describe Jude Bellingham’s Mexico heroics. The Three Lions No. 10 has now scored four goals in North America having also netted in the group stage wins against Croatia and Panama.
Bellingham also assisted Harry Kane against the Panamanians to cap off what has so far been a glorious tournament across the Atlantic. With the Norway vs England odds for Saturday’s quarter-final favouring Thomas Tuchel’s side, Bellingham will be quietly confident of adding to his five goal contributions in Miami.
How Old Is Jude Bellingham?
England and Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham is 23-years-old. The Stourbridge star was born on June 29, 2003. Bellingham celebrated his birthday shortly after the 2-0 group stage win against Panama and is currently 7/1 in the Sports Personality of the Year odds market.
Bellingham’s rise to the top has been meteoric having blossomed at boyhood-club Birmingham. A move to Borussia Dortmund followed after just 41 EFL appearances for the Blues and since 2023, he has been a sensation for Real Madrid. The fact he has his best years ahead of him will likely strike fear into England’s future opponents at major tournaments.
England 2026 World Cup Odds
England are currently 5/1 to win the 2026 World Cup. The Three Lions roared to a stunning victory in Mexico City which will have almost certainly made the likes of Argentina, France and Spain sit up and take notice.
Many are hailing the El Tri win as one of the finest on the global stage and with Jude Bellingham in their ranks, Thomas Tuchel’s side will be more than confident they can emulate the heroes of the 1966 edition.
