Daniel Sturridge explodes in wild celebration at FOX studios as Jude Bellingham rescues England at Euro 2024 – and Tom Brady joins the party!
Daniel Sturridge erupted in the FOX Sports studio as Jude Bellingham’s incredible 90th-minute equalizer saved England an embarrassing exit from Euro 2024.
England were on the verge of bowing out against Slovakia, with the score seemingly remaining at 1–0 in Germany, before Bellingham scored a sensational acrobatic kick with a minute of stoppage time remaining.
It sparked wild celebrations from England fans around the world, including Sturridge in Germany, where he is covering the tournament for American soccer fans.
As Bellingham’s shot hit the back of the net, former England striker Sturridge jumped out of his seat and shouted ‘Come on! Get in! Let’s go!’.
FOX Soccer even posted the clip on social media with the caption: “Daniel Sturridge was every England fan after that late Jude Bellingham goal.”

Sturridge sat between Peter Schmeichel and Alexi Lalas in the FOX studio and had endured another miserable performance in England at the tournament up to that point.
But Bellingham’s goal sparked an incredible England comeback and sent the match into extra time.
Then star striker Harry Kane gave England a 2-1 lead.
“I’m delighted. They’ve put themselves in this position, a great opportunity to get to the quarter-finals,” Sturridge said in a more calm moment during extra time.
When the game was won, he added: ‘That goal is really high. 30 seconds to go, I think they’re going home. The belief, the patience in the squad is amazing.’
Tom Brady, co-owner of Birmingham City, the club where Bellingham began his football career, also cheered for England.
“Jude,” Brady simply tweeted with a series of “mind-boggling” emojis.
When Kane added another, Brady tweeted again, saying, “Harry!!! What a match!!!’.
After their comeback victory, England will play Switzerland on Saturday.
