Jude Bellingham has been given a match ban by UEFA for his bad gesture in the last game of the UEFA Euro 2024. Bellingham scored a spectacular bicycle kick goal in the game against Slovakia and made an inappropriate celebration. UEFA did ban him for one game with a fine of €30k but the player will be available to play the quarter-finals game against Switzerland. He will serve a match ban for any of the game played this year.
England’s rising star, Jude Bellingham, has been handed a one-match ban by UEFA following a celebration during the UEFA Euro 2024. The incident occurred during England’s round of 16 match against Slovakia, where Bellingham scored a spectacular bicycle kick goal, helping his team secure a vital victory.
While the goal itself was a highlight, Bellingham’s post-goal celebration was said to be unsporting by UEFA. The governing body has imposed a one-match suspension and a €30,000 fine on the young midfielder. Despite the ban, Bellingham will be available for England’s crucial quarter-final clash against Switzerland.
The suspension means Bellingham will miss any of the one international fixtures played this year, enforcing a strict reminder of the importance of sportsmanship on the field.
