Some fans have taken to Twitter to react after England tweeted footage of the warm-up from Thursday’s 5-0 win over San Marino.

The 28-second clip shows Jude Bellingham nutmeg Eric Dier with an outrageous piece of skill at Wembley.

Impressively, the Borussia Dortmund wonderkid has a look at the £4 million Spurs man’s strides, before making his move.

Bellingham leaps in the air, where he then does a heel flick which diverts the ball perfectly through Dier’s legs as he walks across the turf.

After realising what’s just happened to him, the Tottenham man has a word with the 17-year-old, before giving him a playful hug.

It was a lovely bit of skill from the teenager, but what was more impressive was the timing of it, and the awareness of where Dier was.

Another simply described it as ‘outrageous’ – there’s no denying that.
