Bukayo Saka, born of Nigerian parents, was England’s hero yesterday as the Three Lions began their Qatar 2022 World Cup journey with a resounding 6-2 defeat of hapless Iran.

England’s forward #17 Bukayo Saka celebrates England’s forward #09 Harry Kane and England’s defender #03 Luke Shaw after he scored England’s fourth goal during the Qatar 2022 World Cup Group B football match between England and Iran at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha on November 21, 2022. The Arsenal golden boy struck twice in a game Gareth Southgate’s men used to announce their arrival as one of the favourites for the World Cup title.

Marcus Rashford has not represented the national team at all since missing his attempt in that shootout and scored within minutes of coming on in a win that Jude Bellingham, Raheem Sterling and Jack Grealish also scored in. The Netherlands scored twice in the final minutes through Cody Gakpo and substitute Davy Klaassen to beat the African champions at Al Thumama Stadium.

All guests at the 140-room Double Tree Hilton and associated restaurants in Doha’s Al Saad district had to depart when an emergency alarm was raised. The team were greeted by a couple of hundred Ghana fans upon their arrival on Friday evening – by which point guests were already permitted to return. Extensive checks have also been conducted in other hotels housing teams as part of a tight security operation.
