Saka's hat-trick fires England to World Cup bronze in 6-4 thriller against France
Sky Sports and ESPN reported that Bukayo Saka scored a hat-trick, including a late penalty, as England beat France 6-4 in the 2026 World Cup third-place playoff in Miami on July 19. It was England's best World Cup finish since 1966, and Saka became only the fourth Englishman to score a World Cup hat-trick. Saka, used sparingly during the tournament, told ESPN he was proud but "would love to have played more."
