The English youngster once again made headlines when he scored Dortmund’s opening goal against Augsburg, with a beautiful shot from outside the box.

With the Bundesliga returning after an extra-long World Cup-induced break, many expected there to be some rust among players, but Bellingham picked up from where he left off.

The Dortmund star was a star in the midfield for much of the first half, helping his team to create a host of chances.

In the 29th minute of the game, Bellingham showed off some of his individual skills as he produced a Lionel Messi-like finish.

The youngster showed coolness and composure as he left two defenders for dead, firing a low shot from the edge of the box which found the bottom corner of the net.

It was the Englishman’s fourth goal of the season in the Bundesliga and his 20th overall for the German side, Transfermarkt reported.
