England star Jude Bellingham was dealt a brutal touchline snub after producing a man-of-the-match performance against Italy on Tuesday night as he was told to come back for his post-match interview as Channel 4 were heading for a break. The Three Lions booked their place in Euro 2024 as they came from behind to win the match 3-1 at Wembley Stadium.
After the full-time whistle was blown, a whole host of players came over to the touchline to greet Channel 4 pundits Jill Scott, Joe Cole and Gianfranco Zola. Bellingham, who grabbed an assist on the night, was the final player to approach the trio. But he was turned away by presenter Jules Breach.
“Jude Bellingham is going to come over and have a proper chat with us in a minute but for the time being I know he wanted to share a bit of love with Gianfranco Zola and Joe and Jill,£ Breach said. “And Jude you are going to come back and join us in a minute. Come back in a bit because we’ve got to take a break quickly.”
