An unforgettable match took place yesterday as England’s Three Lions secured third place at the World Cup.
England produced their strongest outcome at the tournament since 1966, beating France 6-4 in the third-place play-off.
The contest swung dramatically in England’s favor early, with the team heading into the break leading 4-0. Declan Rice opened the scoring, Ezri Konsa added a goal, and Bukayo Saka also found the net.
France responded strongly after the interval, launching a comeback in the second half. Kylian Mbappe struck twice, while Bradley Barcola added a further goal and Ousmane Dembele also scored to keep the contest alive.
England ultimately sealed the win 6-4, with Bukayo Saka scoring again from the penalty spot and Jude Bellingham delivering a superb finish, allowing the Three Lions to wrap up the World Cup with their second-best placing ever.
