Jude Bellingham celebrated four goal contributions in ruthless attacking display.

England believe their evolving tactical approach is giving Jude Bellingham greater freedom to influence matches in the final third.
The midfielder was one of the standout performers as England recorded a 7–0 victory over Croatia in the Nations League, with the result highlighting the attacking possibilities of the team's current setup.
England assistant coach Anthony Barry has explained that the new structure is designed to give the team's attacking players greater freedom rather than restricting them to fixed positions.
That approach could be particularly beneficial for Bellingham, whose ability to move between midfield and attacking areas has been an important part of his game since establishing himself at the highest level.
The 23-year-old continues to play a central role for England, and the coaching staff believe the current system can help him make an even greater impact.
England face Czech Republic next as their Nations League campaign continues, with further performances likely to provide a clearer indication of how effective the tactical changes can be.
