WHAT HAPPENED? Bellingham warmed up for the World Cup in some style on Friday, setting up Brandt to equalise for Dortmund at Borussia Monchengladbach.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Bellingham has impressed again for Dortmund this season, with his performances ensuring he's become Real Madrid's top transfer target ahead of the 2023-24 season. The 19-year-old will also be hoping to make an impact at the World Cup and is expected to be a starter for the Three Lions in Qatar.

WHAT NEXT FOR BELLINGHAM? The 19-year-old is now set to join the England squad for the World Cup. Gareth Southgate's side open up their campaign against Iran on November 21.
