England winger, Bukayo Saka has expressed delight with the team’s 6-2 win over Iran in Monday’s 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
The Arsenal star in a chat with BBC, stated that the Three Lions have sent a statement of what they can achieve in Qatar.
Recall that Saka scored twice on his World Cup debut and Jude Bellingham, Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford and Jack Grealish also struck to end a six-game winless run for Gareth Southgate’s men.
“We needed that good start. We haven’t played the best coming into the tournament. There was a lot of talk and speculation about our form but we showed everyone how much quality we have and what we can do,” Saka told the BBC.
“It is amazing to get the win under so much pressure. But we have to be consistent because we have the next game coming up in a few days and we have to win again.”
“I can’t describe the feeling, it is amazing. I am so happy and so proud. We got the win as well so it is a really special day,” added Saka.
“I feel in a good place. I feel the support and love from the fans, the coaching staff and my teammates.
“That is all I need. I feel ready to give 100 percent and I will continue to do that every time I put the shirt on.”
