Netherlands U21 1-1 England U21: Jude Bellingham watches on in Almere as a Young Lions side featuring his brother Jobe extends their run to 10 games unbeaten

Jude Bellingham  came to town to see England Under-21s, led by his younger brother Jobe, hold an impressive Netherlands side to a 1-1 draw to make it 10 games unbeaten.

Fresh from his man of the match display at Wembley against Ireland the night prior, Real Madrid superstar Bellingham joined mum Denise and dad Mark to watch Jobe in his second outing for the 21s.

Here in the quaint city of Almere – and at the smallest professional stadium in the country – Bellingham watched on from under a blanket in freezing conditions as England held on against a slick Dutch side courtesy of Dane Scarlett’s early header.

Jordan Henderson, who has 81 England caps, was here too, as England showed the future is very bright in what was the final game before Lee Carsley returns from his stint with the seniors to take charge of the team.

Against the Dutch, who were being spearheaded in attack by Jude Bellingham’s best friend, Noah Ohio, it was Lewis Miley, who made his debut at the level in this camp, and Bellingham who really shone.

Dane Scarlett netted the opener before substitute Thom van Bergen levelled for the hosts

The two rising stars in North East football made England tick in the early stages and bright play through midfield led to the ball finding Samuel Iling Junior wide left in the fifth minute, with his cross perfect onto the head of Scarlett.

The Dutch had substitute Thom van Bergen to thank for a late equaliser from close range in what was no less than they deserved after 21 shots on goal.
