Squad is fatigued, admits Bellingham

JUDE Bellingham admits England's stars are fatigued after a long season but will "give it everything" to win Sunday's Euro 2024 final against Spain.

Gareth Southgate's side booked their place in Berlin with another late show as substitute Ollie Watkins scored in the last minute to complete a 2-1 comeback victory over the Netherlands on Wednesday night.

Bellingham himself scored an overhead kick deep into added time to rescue a draw against Slovakia in the round of 16, with captain Harry Kane's extra-time header taking England through.

They then needed a fine Bukayo Saka effort to level against Switzerland before advancing through a tight quarter-final on penalties, and on Wednesday Watkins' heroics secured back-to-back Euros finals after Kane's penalty cancelled out Xavi Simons strike.

"We live to fight another day, another late goal," said Bellingham.
