JUDE BELLNGHAM launched into an incredible meltdown on the pitch immediately after England’s embarrassing 3-1 defeat to Senegal.
The 22-year-old midfielder failed to keep his emotions in check following the full-time whistle as England lost to an African nation for the first time.

A 93rd-minute punisher from Cheikh Sabaly put the final nail in England‘s coffin as they suffered a first loss under manager Thomas Tuchel.
Substitute Bellingham had a goal controversially disallowed for a handball by Levi Colwill, after the ball had hit the Chelsea star high on the arm in the 83rd minute.
The debatable decision late in the game left England stars and Tuchel fuming, as Colwill didn’t appear to deliberately touch the ball.
Regardless, England didn’t do enough to win and were lucky that the match was a friendly, with Tuchel still undefeated in the World Cup qualifiers.
But Bellingham was so frustrated that he kicked the ball into the air as referee Stephanie Frappart blew the whistle at the City Ground.
The Real Madrid star then kicked a water cooler before chasing after the assistant referee.
The former Bundesliga ace wasn’t the only one irritated with the decision, with captain Harry Kane hinting that the officials “didn’t know the rules”.
Tuchel also confronted Frappart and her team of officials in the middle of the pitch at full-time.

Bellingham, however, quickly appeared to calm down and heartwarmingly gifted his shirt to a young fan on the pitch.
But the talented midfielder does have history of taking his frustrations out on objects after defeats.
He memorably kicked the VAR monitor in frustration after Real Madrid’s last-gasp defeat.
