Gareth Southgate was full of praise for Bukayo Saka after the Arsenal forward scored his first career hat-trick in a 7-0 victory against North Macedonia in Monday’s (19 June) Euro 2024 qualifier. Despite nursing a sore ankle, Saka was instrumental in carrying England to the halfway point of qualification with four wins from their four Group C games. “He’s such a popular member of the team and so humble, works incredibly hard... it was an outstanding performance,” the England boss said.
