In addition to scoring for England against Scotland, Jude Bellingham was also issued another warning.
The superstar of Real Madrid maintained his perfect start to the year by converting a misdirected clearance by Andy Robertson to give the visitors a 2-0 lead at Hampden Park.
Bellingham’s goal at the 35-minute mark demonstrated his class.
After that, we witnessed Bellingham’s irritable side.
Yellow cards were issued.
The 20-year-old’s half finished with a penalty, bringing his club and country’s total to an amazing six goals in six matches.
Bellingham was also given a yellow card for interfering in the aftermath following Kalvin Phillips’ late challenge against the Manchester City player.
For the 42nd-minute altercation, Jack Hendry was also issued a warning, but Stuart Pearce was prompted to react by Bellingham’s eagerness to get involved.
“The one thing that worried me a little bit is Bellingham was quick to get involved in the pushing and shoving straight away and there’s no need for that,” Pearce remarked on talkSPORT commentary.
He like tackling, and if you enter large competitions enjoying tackling and participating in pushing and shoving, you’ll quickly find yourself out of the game.
Before Bellingham’s goal helped England sail to a 2-0 lead at halftime, Phil Foden had broken the scoreless tie.
Harry Maguire’s own goal gave the game fresh life, but Harry Kane’s cool-headed goal gave Gareth Southgate’s team a 3-1 triumph.
