BUKAYO SAKA says England have shown they can win in “any way” necessary in their bid for Euro 2024 glory, and “will give everything” for manager Gareth Southgate.
The England squad were this morning back on the grass at their Blankenhain base following yesterday’s recovery session, as preparations ramp up for Wednesday’s semi-final against Holland in Dortmund.
Saka’s brilliant strike rescued Saturday’s quarter-final against Switzerland, cancelling out Breel Embolo’s opening goal, before a nerveless penalty shootout from Southgate’s side, which they won 5-3. Saka also scored from the spot to exorcise his personal demons from missing the decisive spotkick in the final of Euro 2020.
England have now come from behind to win both knockout games in Germany, after Jude Bellingham's 95th-minute bicycle kick salvaged the last-16 tie against Slovakia, and Saka says they will do "whatever it takes" to get through games.
