UEFA has banned England star Jude Bellingham following his awkward gesture against Slovakia in the round of 16.

The Three Lions sealed their quarter final qualification after defeating Slovakia in the round of 16.

A late goal from Bellingham and an extra-time goal from Harry Kane send Gareth Southgate's side to the quarter-final to face Switzerland.

Bellingham who is one of the hottest footballers in the world, scored an incredible goal to get England back into the game but his X-rated celebration after scoring led to an investigation.
