Bukayo Saka Reflects on England's World Cup Heartbreak

England winger Bukayo Saka expressed that the team continues to carry the emotional "scar" from their World Cup semi-final exit to Argentina. Under the management of Thomas Tuchel, England was close to reaching their first men's World Cup final since 1966 but suffered a setback with two late goals from Argentina.

They managed to secure a thrilling 6-4 victory over France in the bronze medal match, marking their best World Cup finish in sixty years. Saka acknowledged the collective belief and confidence of the team and the nation during the tournament, stating, “You try to move on as soon as possible, but you know a scar is a scar, it decides to heal when it heals itself.” As England prepares to host world champions Spain at Wembley for their first Nations League match, Saka emphasized the importance of moving forward and focusing on the upcoming international season, which includes four crucial group games.
