Slovakia took a 1-0 lead in Sunday's round of 16 clash courtesy of Slavia Prague forward Ivan Schranz.

England banged their heads against the wall for the next 65 minutes of play, seemingly heading for an early Euro 2024 exit.

They failed to record a single shot on target despite dominating the possession by a large margin.

But a moment of brilliance from Jude Bellingham saved Gareth Soutgate's men.

The Real Madrid midfielder leveled it up with a stunning overhead kick in the 95th minute, sending the game to extra time.

The effort didn't escape Brady's attention.

"Jude," the seven-time Super Bowl champion wrote on X, adding four mind-blown emojis.

England dealt another blow just 90 seconds after the match resumed.

Harry Kane headed home after Bukayo Saka bounced the ball toward his captain off a clumsy cross attempt by Eberechi Eze.

"Harry!!! What a game!!!" Brady wrote in another X post soon after, adding a couple of mind-blown emojis.

England ended up claiming a 2-1 win, setting up a quarterfinal clash with Switzerland.

Brady wasn't the only prominent sports personality to watch the captivating game.

NBA star Joel Embiid also marveled at the Three Lions' comeback.

"Bellingham so COLD," the Philadelphia 76ers center posted on X after England tied things up.

And when the referee blew the whistle for the final time, he saluted England with a "HERE WE GO!!!!"

Brady has been familiarizing himself with soccer ever since becoming a minority owner of the English club Birmingham City in 2023.

The ownership group he's part of is said to have made another investment in the team recently.

It reportedly bought a 48-acre plot not far away from Birmingham's St. Andrews stadium to build a new state-of-the-art arena alongside new training facilities.

Unfortunately for Brady, the Blues were relegated to League One after 13 seasons in the Championship, the English second-tier soccer league.

They slipped below the top two levels for the first time in 29 years.
