The England international became the first player born in this millennium to score in a World Cup.
The match against Iran in the World Cup was a special one for England midfielder Jude Bellingham. Recall that the footballer opened the scoring in this match, which eventually ended in the defeat of the rivals.
Thus, Bellingham became the first soccer player born in this millennium to score a goal in the World Cup.
Note that the Borussia Dortmund player scored his goal at the age of 19 years and 145 days. However, according to this indicator, he did not become a champion. In the 1998 World Cup, the younger Englishman Michael Owen scored his first World Cup goal at the age of 18 years and 190 days.
Remember that the England team will easily deal with the Iran team at the start of the 2022 World Cup.
