Gary Neville screams ‘WE’RE NOT GOING HOME’ after Jude Bellingham aim
- Gary Neville and Ian Wright celebrated wildly inside the ITV studio on Sunday
- They were celebrating Jude Bellingham’s late goal for England against Slovakia
- England went on to beat Slovakia 2-1 in extra-time in round of 16 at Euro 2024
Jude Bellingham‘s tournament-saving equaliser against Slovakia on Sunday sparked wild celebrations among England fans in Germany and back home.
The Three Lions were seconds away from exiting Euro 2024 in the round of 16 before Jude Bellingham delivered a stunning overhead kick deep into added time.
Harry Kane later netted in extra time as England went on to win 2-1 and book a quarter-final clash with Switzerland next weekend.
Sunday’s game was broadcast live on ITV 1, whose punditry team included former England players Gary Neville and Ian Wright.
Footage of Neville and Wright’s reaction to Bellingham’s goal was shared by ITV via social media and it is fair to say that they enjoyed it as much as any other England fan.

Both men initially celebrated by running around with their arms raised before Neville jumped into Wright’s arms.
Neville then let out multiple high-pitch screams before shouting: ‘We’re not going home!’
Despite his boisterous reaction to Bellingham’s moment of magic, Neville was later critical of England’s performance in his post-game analysis.
He said: ‘Getting over the line and winning in tournaments is all important.
‘But to think you can go through a month-long tournament playing like we are doing and get through to the end… I think is unrealistic.’
Former England right back Neville was filmed repeatedly shouting: ‘WE’RE NOT GOING HOME!’

Wright added: ‘You look forward to the next game but you don’t look forward to it thinking “yeah, we’re doing this, we’re playing well”.’
‘It feels like [England are reliant on] moments. What we need is some structure.
‘At some stage we’re going to have to find a way to beat teams by playing through them.’
