England star Jude Bellingham erupted in laughter after hearing a comment from Gianfranco Zola at Wembley Stadium last night: ‘When I was 20, I was still drinking milk from my mum.’
Bellingham took centre stage in England’s 3-1 win over Italy at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday night by earning a penalty kick and delivering an assist for Marcus Rashford.
Bellingham joined Zola and Joe Cole on Channel 4 for post a post-match interview and erupted in laughter after hearing a comment from the ex-Italian striker.
Zola praised the Real Madrid star and was even more impressed due to his age: “At 20 years old, I was still drinking milk from my mum!” said Zola, making everyone laugh.
Zola was also laughing and had to clarify after realising that he had made a direct translation of a popular Italian expression, which is often used to highlight somebody’s inexperience.
