Bukayo Saka has taken his game to new heights this season helping Arsenal reach the top of the Premier League table. Four goals and six assists from 14 league games has seen Saka become a crucial part of Mikel Arteta's attack, with his performances earning him a spot in Gareth Southgate's chosen starting XI for their World Cup opener against Iran.
The 21-year-old put in a superb performance netting a brace as England rode out 6-2 winners, but a disappointing display against the USA saw him lose his place against Wales. The displays of Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden threw a spot in the Three Lions attack against Senegal in the last-16 into doubt, but Saka was included in the starting XI along with Foden.
With many surprised Rashford lost his place in the team after scoring twice against Wales, the pressure was high on Saka to deliver and he certainly did. After England stormed into a two-goal lead, Saka sealed the victory by delicately lofting an effort over Edouard Mendy from a Foden pass.
