Bellingham Header Secures England's Euro 2024 Opener Win

Thrilling Start to Group C Match

England kicked off their Euro 2024 campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Serbia at the Arena. The Three Lions dominated the opening stages of the match and took the lead in the 13th minute through Jude Bellingham's powerful header.

Bellingham's Winning Strike

Bellingham's goal came after a deflected cross from Bukayo Saka found its way to the Borussia Dortmund midfielder in the six-yard box. The 19-year-old wasted no time in powering the ball past Serbia goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.

Serbia's Determined Effort

Serbia put up a spirited effort in the second half, but England's defense held firm. Gareth Southgate's side controlled possession and limited the opposition to only a few clear-cut chances.

Three Points for England

The victory gives England a vital three points in Group C, which also includes Croatia and Portugal. The Three Lions will face their next challenge against Croatia on Thursday, while Serbia will take on Portugal on Tuesday.
