Provides assist in win
Saka assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 win against Mexico.
Analysis: Saka lifted a ball that led to Jude Bellingham's opener after dribbling into the box in the 36th minute against the co-hosts. Having previously seen limited action as a backup option behind Noni Madueke, Saka showed he's now in good shape to start matches and could continue to make an impact on the right wing. He has stood out for his three assists in five appearances (two starts), ranking on top of the squad in that category.
Four crosses off bench
Saka generated four crosses (zero accurate) and two tackles in Wednesday's 2-1 win versus the DR Congo.
Analysis: Saka came off the bench and sent in four crosses during Wednesday's win. He provided a threat down the right flank but couldn't produce any end product at the end. The winger should be in for a big role against Mexico, though his fitness has been managed throughout the tournament, so his role might be off the bench for that round of 16 clash.
