The new generation of the England national team achieved a resounding victory in their debut at Qatar 2022. The emphatic 6-2 win against Iran makes it clear that the 'Three Lions' have great individualities after giving a performance of offensive football at the International Khalifa Stadium. And one of their main exponents was Bukayo Saka, who shone in his first World Cup match.
Although it is true that Harry Kane was not lucky in front of the opposing goal, England had no problems in adding their first three points at Qatar 2022. And that's because they overwhelmed their opponent and the six goals were not enough to reflect the game. Gareth Southgate's team has shown its candidacy to go far in the World Cup with Saka, who continued his great moment at Arsenal in the tournament.
The English goals in this Group B match were scored by Bellingham (35), Raheem Sterling (45+1), Marcus Rashford (71), and Jack Grealish (90). Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka scored twice to confirm that Southgate's choice was a success.
The 21-year-old star has become the first player born in this 21st century to score a brace in the World Cup. His two goals were of high quality: the first one was a left-footed shot that was impossible to stop for Iran's goalkeeper, while the second one was the result of a great individual play in the second half.
