Slovakia took a 1-0 lead in Sunday’s round of 16 clash courtesy of Slavia Prague forward Ivan Schranz.

England banged their heads against the wall for the next 65 minutes of play, seemingly heading for an early Euro 2024 exit.

They failed to record a single shot on target despite dominating the possession by a large margin.

But a moment of brilliance from Jude Bellingham saved Gareth Soutgate’s men.

The Real Madrid midfielder leveled it up with a stunning overhead kick in the 95th minute, sending the game to extra time.

The effort didn’t escape Brady’s attention.

“Jude,” the seven-time Super Bowl champion wrote on X, adding four mind-blown emojis.

England dealt another blow just 90 seconds after the match resumed.

Brady has been familiarizing himself with soccer ever since becoming a minority owner of the English club Birmingham City in 2023.

The ownership group he’s part of is said to have made another investment in the team recently.

It reportedly bought a 48-acre plot not far away from Birmingham’s St. Andrews stadium to build a new state-of-the-art arena alongside new training facilities.
