Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Arsenal hotshot Bukayo Saka beat Wayne Rooney's World Cup record, following his spectacular performance for England against Iran.
Saka was among England's star players during their huge 6-2 win over Team Melli in the Group B opener in Qatar on Monday, November 21.
The Gunners forward netted a brace to inspire the Three Lions to a comfortable win at the Khalifa International Stadium.
