Tom Brady was foiled trying to bring a European soccer match to the USA
KANSAS City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes knows a thing or two about spectacular plays.
And the NFL superstar, who is on a European vacation with his family, loved watching soccer prodigy Jude Bellingham in action on Sunday.

Real Madrid sensation Bellingham, 21, scored an incredible last-minute goal with England staring at a humiliating Euro 2024 exit.
Mahomes, 28, shared a replay of the acrobatic effort with his 2.6 million followers on X – calling it “crazy.”
“Game recognize game,” replied one fan.
“The best American football player weighing in on the best European football. This,” a third posted.
“That’s what Jude does,” said England captain Harry Kane after the game.
“It was an unbelievable goal. One of the best in our country’s history, I reckon.
“What a player he is. He works so hard for the team.
“There has been a lot of talk about him the last couple of days, and it shows what he can do.
“In big moments, he steps up, and that’s what we needed.”
Bellingham could be banned from England’s Euro 2024 quarter-final against Switzerland after making an obscene gesture following the goal.
NFL icon Tom Brady also praised the forward, whose strike came so late some England fans had already left the stadium, on social media.
The Fox Sports broadcaster invested in third-tier English soccer team Birmingham City in 2023.
Brady, 46, and his fellow investors had an audacious attempt to play a game in the United States turned down last month.
