In addition to being England's joint-top scorer at the tournament alongside Harry Kane, Bellingham ranks top among England players across a raft of attacking metrics.
But the data also underlines his off-ball influence. Bellingham leads England for total available offers for passes, sprints, runs into the attacking third and runs in behind.
Opta still tips England to reach the final, albeit by a razor-thin 50.9 per cent to 49.1 per cent margin against Argentina. Bellingham has already knocked out Norway - and with them Haaland as a Golden Boot rival. Now, alongside Kane, he sits two goals behind Mbappe and Messi, who also remain in the tournament.
