Southgate happy with Arsenal attacker Saka after England win: Top level

England coach Gareth Southgate heaped praise on Arsenal attacker Bukayo Saka on Sunday.

The Three Lions manager was delighted with Saka's performance after England beat Ukraine 2-0 on Sunday in their Euro 2024 qualifier.

Saka struck the second goal to make the scoreline secure for England, while he was a threat for the home side throughout the game.

“It's a top level finish," Southgate stated post-game.

“That's the ruthless part he's added to his game.

“You know when he cuts in that's possible. When he turns inside you know that can happen."
