Jude Bellingham had headed England in front, but Saka’s strike got fans talking.
Many are suggesting that it is his redemption after missing a penalty in the shootout of the Euros final in 2020.
One tweeted: “I cheered this goal like a Man United player scored it.
“Saka was racially abused after missing that penalty against Italy, at Euro 2020, I bet those same s*** bags are cheering him right now.
