"Bukayo Saka's splendid angled volley put England ahead at home to Serbia in their penultimate 2026 World Cup qualifier on Thursday but the Arsenal livewire and Three Lions goalkeeper Jordan Pickford both appeared to be troubled by injuries during the first half at Wembley Stadium. Saka, who missed a total of six club and international matches earlier this season with a hamstring problem, appeared to be hobbling after his strike from inside the box,"
"England have already reached the finals and were on course at half-time to continue their perfect record in the group including an unblemished defensive record thanks to Saka's goal. There really is no end to this boy's quality, applauded Dixon. This is just pure quality. The ball ricochets to him and he doesn't rush it he just takes it with his instep. It's a brilliant finish absolutely majestic. He just passes it into the far side netting."
Bukayo Saka scored a splendid angled volley to give England the lead against Serbia in their penultimate 2026 World Cup qualifier at Wembley. Saka appeared to be hobbling after the strike, having missed six matches earlier this season with a hamstring problem, while goalkeeper Jordan Pickford required treatment for a separate issue. England had already qualified for the finals and led at half-time, preserving a perfect group record and an unblemished defensive record thanks to Saka's goal. Lee Dixon praised Saka's finishing and noted the player's limp. Manchester City's Nico O'Reilly made his first England start, with Jude Bellingham on the bench.
