Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham was happy with his performance for England's 3-1 friendly win in Scotland.

Bellingham scored one and created another on Tuesday night.

He later said: "I wasn't happy with how I played against Ukraine, it wasn't anywhere near my best and the motivation is always to get back to your best. I got somewhere close tonight.

"It's just a freedom role really. I get given the freedom by the amazing teammates and manager that I have [at Real Madrid].

"I know it depends on the system we play, and we've got so many amazing players to accommodate, and so the team comes first always. I really enjoyed playing in that [same] position today.

"A lot of the lads felt like they didn't perform to their level [against Ukraine]. That's a great attitude to have, and still be able to take the positives into the next game.

"Having these big wins helps build camaraderie in the group."
