Bellingham Investigated by UEFA for Controversial Gesture

Investigation Underway After England Midfielder's Actions

Statement Expected from European Governing Body

The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has launched an investigation into England midfielder Jude Bellingham following a questionable gesture he made after scoring a late equalizer during a match against Croatia at the European Championship.

UEFA did not immediately provide details about the specific gesture or the nature of the investigation, but it is expected to issue a statement in the near future. Bellingham, 18, has been a key player for England in the tournament and his actions have been widely discussed on social media.

The incident occurred in the 76th minute of the match, with England trailing 1-0. Bellingham scored the equalizer to earn a point for his team, but his subsequent gesture has overshadowed the goal. The investigation by UEFA is ongoing and it remains unclear what potential sanctions Bellingham may face.
