On June 27th, lip-reading expert Jeremy Freeman deciphered Bellingham’s on-field outburst, revealing his frustration with his teammate’s failure to pass him the ball. He even used expletives in his frustration.
England won their group in the European Championship with one win and two draws, amassing 5 points. However, the world was not impressed with the Three Lions’ performance. Bellingham scored the winning goal against Serbia in their first game, but his performance in the subsequent matches against Denmark and Slovenia left much to be desired.
In the final group game against Slovenia, Bellingham’s frustration with the team’s inability to score mounted towards the end of the first half. During a corner kick attack, Bellingham was unhappy with his teammate’s decision and let out a string of expletives. Lip-reading expert Jeremy Freeman interpreted his words as: “He f**king passed it! F**k it.”
England has been drawn into the easier half of the knockout stage, avoiding strong teams like Germany, Spain, Portugal, and France. This has given the team a glimmer of hope for their future. It remains to be seen if Bellingham can turn the tide in the knockout rounds and finally deliver on his potential.
