Jude: We'll rise to the occasion

JUDE BELLINGHAM admits England have been below-par but says they have a "great opportunity" to put it right against Slovakia.

The Real Madrid star did warn, though, that the team 45th in FIFA's rankings will be in difficult opponents Gelsenkirchen on Sunday.

England face Slovakia, one of the best third-placed teams, and Bellingham says sometimes it can be easier to play bigger nations if they come out to attack.

He was speaking on the FA's Lions' Den show but had just got out of bed and did not know England's last-16 opponents until the host Josh Denzel brought it up.
