Jude Bellingham has commented on Manchester City talisman Erling Haaland after leading Borussia Dortmund to victory last night.

Bellingham scored for the third straight Champions League matchday as the German outfit beat Sevilla 4-1 on their own patch.

The England international also captained the side and laid on an assist as he provided yet another demonstration of his talent.

He became just the second ever teenager to score in the first three Champions League matchdays of the season. The first? Haaland.

Bellingham’s post-match interview went as follows…

Interviewer: “You’re only the second teenager to score in the first three matchdays of the Champions League. Do you know who the first one was?”

Bellingham: “English teenager or any teenager? Mbappe?”

Interviewer: “You know him very well.”

“Erling. Of course. I can’t get anything over that geezer at the minute, I swear to God. But yeah, sums him up.”

While Bellingham was shining, so was Haaland, grabbing another two goals as City beat Copenhagen 5-0 at the Etihad Stadium.

He would have had yet another hat-trick in a home game but Davit Khocholava put through his own net with Haaland lurking just behind him to tap home.

Bellingham and Haaland are two of the hottest properties in world football right now and between them they will continue to set and break records.
