Bukayo Saka managed to score two goals in a row in the 37th and (45+1) minutes, ending the first half with a score of 4-0 at the expense of the English.

In the 54th minute, Bradley Barcola scored the second goal for the Roosters, and in the 66th minute, Mbappe managed to score the third goal.

Under French pressure, the referee of the match awarded a penalty in favor of the England team, which Saka successfully executed, scoring a hat-trick in the 87th minute, making the score 5-3 in favor of the “Three Lions”.

The French team did not give up and applied strong pressure until substitute Ousmane Dembele managed to score the fourth goal in the minute (90+6).

Substitute Jude Bellingham managed to score the sixth goal from a quick counter-attack to end the match in a thrilling victory for the Three Lions.
