Jude Bellingham and Trent Alexander-Arnold debut new celebration after Real Madrid star opens scoring against Serbia with thumping header

Jude Bellingham picked up where he left off at the end of the season as he gave England an early lead in their Euro 2024 opener and he and Trent Alexander-Arnold clearly had a celebration prepared.

Bellingham showed great desire to beat a defender to Bukayo Saka's cross and power his header home in the 13th minute.

It was a dream start for Gareth Southgate's men, who were made favourites coming in to the tournament.

Bellingham proceeded to perform his trademark celebration before waiting for Alexander-Arnold to join him.

The pair then both got down on one knee before covering their faces with one hand.

Alexander-Arnold was the big story in terms of the starting XI with Gareth Southgate playing the Liverpool full-back in midfield. 

The Reds star and Bellingham are close friends and can usually be close by one another while on England duty.

The two Englishman have been pictured hanging out off the pitch on a number of occasions and were seen practicing a secret handshake in training this week.
