Former Arsenal star Mesut Ozil has offered his thoughts on England's World Cup quarter-final defeat to France and the performance of Bukayo Saka. The Gunners forward was instrumental in the Three Lions' dominating and attacking performance, but they ultimately came up short against the world champions.
Olivier Giroud's second half header secured France's spot in the semi-finals after Harry Kane had cancelled out Aurelien Tchouameni's opener. The England captain had a second opportunity to equalise from the penalty spot, but blazed his effort from 12 yards well over the target.
Gareth Southgate's side deserved better for their efforts with Saka particularly impressing on the right of England's attack terrorising both Theo Hernandez and Dayot Upamecano.
