ARSENAL star Declan Rice pushed the camera away after England’s draw with Belgium.

The midfield man was not in the mood to be filmed as his side scraped a 2-2 draw against their European rivals.

Belgium went ahead twice at Wembley thanks to a double from Aston Villa midfielder Youri Tielemans.

Chelsea flop Romelu Lukaku assisted both goals as Belgium came within seconds of victory.

But a late Jude Bellingham strike, which followed an earlier penalty from Brentford’s Ivan Toney, rescued a dramatic draw for England.

The Real Madrid man’s late impact sparked wild celebrations from boss Gareth Southgate, who avoided consecutive defeats following Saturday’s 1-0 loss to Brazil.

And at the final whistle, players from both England and Belgium greeted each other in the centre circle.

The visitors boasted plenty of players based in the Premier League, including Jeremy Doku and Amadou Onana.

But Rice, standing in as England skipper for injured Bayern Munich star Harry Kane, made an immediate beeline for Arsenal team-mate Leandro Trossard.

The two men are heavily involved in Mikel Arteta’s title race and will look to get the better of Man City in Sunday’s table-topping clash.

They began talking in earnest, with each man covering his mouth with a hand.

A savvy cameraman quickly zoomed in on the pair before going for a close-up shot.

But Rice clearly didn’t appreciate the lens in his face, and after initially glancing warily at it, then pushed the camera away.

Fans reacted to Rice’s actions on social media, with one saying: “Our boys.”

Another declared: “Couldn’t the camera guy just leave them in peace for a little club mate chat.

“Cameras are the new weeds, sprouting up out of nowhere.”

Another added: “Definitely, totally, a non-substantive convo with zero acquired intel.”

Later in the evening, Rice joined England pals for a night on the town at a private members’ club in London.

The Three Lions partied until 4am with celeb pals including Harry Styles and James Corden.

Rice and Co kicked back in the VIP area of the Chiltern Firehouse in Marylebone.

Jude Bellingham, James Maddison and Jordan Henderson were among the players who turned up for the event organised by Corden.
