Jude Bellingham's dad scored SEVEN goals on an unforgettable debut for the England veterans' side.

Mark Bellingham, 50, rounded off a memorable weekend for the family as Jude, 23, scored for Real Madrid.

And younger brother Jobe, 21, was hailed by many pundits as man of the match in Borussia Dortmund's 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga — though he had his goal disallowed.

Both brothers have previously praised their dad's support during their early careers in their native Birmingham.

Mark, who was a prolific goal scorer as a non-league player, made his debut up front alongside player manager Steve Edkins against the Republic of Ireland.

Jobe was said to have played his best game for Borussia Dortmund - where Jude also used to play - since moving to Germany 15 months ago. Their dad had a 17-year career with 22 different clubs, including Leamington and Bromsgrove Sporting.

He also played for Cheltenham Town and Newport County in the late 1990s. He hung up his boots in 2019 but continued to compete in veterans' tournaments.

He decided to come out of retirement to face the Republic of Ireland in Cambridgeshire on Saturday. It was the first call up for Bellingham Sr to represent the Three Lions. Both his sons represent their country.

Jude has become a key player for the first team under Thomas Tuchel and starred at the World Cup in the summer.

He has already earned 60 caps for England, scoring 14 goals, with 15 assists. Seven of his goals came in last summer's World Cup in the US, where England finished in third place.

Jobe, who signed for Borussia Dortmund from Sunderland for £27.8million last year, is currently playing for England Under-21s side and has captained them on his last 11 outings.

Jude's goal was his 50th in all competitions for the Spanish giants since he joined the club as a 19-year-old for £88.5m from Borussia Dortmund in 2023.

The 23-year-old former Birmingham City player has made 154 appearances for Real and has also recorded 37 assists.

Jobe thought he had scored his first goal for Dortmund at the weekend. But Carney Chukwuemeka’s foul led to it being ruled out.
