Mesut Ozil sends message to Arsenal's Bukayo Saka after England's World Cup exit

Mesut Ozil has heaped praise on Bukayo Saka and urged him to keep his head up following England's painful exit from the World Cup.

The Three Lions crashed out of the competition with a 2-1 defeat against France at the Al Bayt Stadium, courtesy of goals from Aurelien Tchouameni and Oliver Giroud. Harry Kane scored the Three Lions' only goal of the game although he had the chance to take the game to extra-time and add his second from the penalty spot.

However, the Tottenham forward blazed his spot-kick over the bar to condemn England to a frustrating defeat against the reigning world champions. A number of Three Lions stars can take some pride from their performances in Qatar - with Bukayo Saka one of them, having chipped in with three goals and two assists at the World Cup.
