Bukayo Saka completes his hat-trick from the penalty spot and surely secures England's highest ever men's World Cup finish.
Saka makes it 5-3 against France in a wild third-place play off in Miami.
What a way to respond after not playing against Argentina on Wednesday.

On 22 October 1991, senior customs officer Samuel Njiraini was in his office at Wilson Airport when an aeroplane from Bunia, Zaire (now DRC) landed at 8.00 pm.
As an Examining Officer Grade II, Njiraini would work late into the evening just in case somebody tried to smuggle anything through the airport.
At 7.30pm, Preventive Officer Elizabeth Opondo got information that an aeroplane registration 5Y-ZYS would land from Bunia.
As procedure, she got the travel manifest that indicated the number of travellers — a Mr Rasul, the pilot, and passengers Bwambale I, Omar Soba, Athew, Khambale, Ghelani, Pattni K and Dhakan L.
They all carried bags.
Pattni K was infact Paul Kamlesh Pattni.
As Ms Opondo started the task of clearing the passengers, two of them — Kamlesh Pattni and a Mr Dhakan — refused to open their bags.
She asked them to go to Mr Njiraini’s office and they carried along with them a briefcase and a canvas bag.
'These two have refused to open their bags, sir', Ms Opondo told Njiraini.
'What do you have with you gentlemen?' Njiraini asked the two.
'Two-and-a-half kilos of gold', answered Pattni.
Njiraini had been briefed on what had happened outside and did not believe the two-and-half kilogramme story.
He lifted the bags and asked Pattni to open them.
Inside were thirty one kilos of gold dust.
'You have made a false declaration', Njiraini told Pattni.
That was not only an offence but it could land him in jail.
The second mistake was that Pattni and his group did not have import documents.
That was an indicator that the gold was being smuggled into the country.
Pattni requested to call his brother but he instead called the commissioner of customs, Francis Cheruiyot, and explained his predicament at Wilson Airport.
He then handed the phone to Njiraini:
'Talk to your commissioner'.
Cheruiyot listened as Njiraini explained the details.
He then asked Njiraini to handle the issue very diligently, saying he was under pressure.
'Record all the particulars of the goods and the names and passport numbers of the importers and then release the goods', he instructed.
Njiraini could not believe what he was hearing.
At his level as Examining Officer Grade II, he was not authorised to give prior release to any goods.
He requested Cheruiyot to drive to Wilson Airport and give the release authority in writing.
But Cheruiyot was far away and could not have made it to the airport.
Njiraini made a suggestion:
'Can we deposit the goods in a customs warehouse and wait for the importers to bring the required documents?'
Cheruiyot agreed but as soon as Njiraini put the phone down, James Kanyotu, the director of intelligence, was on the line asking why Pattni was detained.
He was told Pattni had two bags of gold and was waiting for the commissioner of mines and geology, Mr. Collins Owayo, to bring import documents.
Njiraini had just finished speaking to Kanyotu when another call came.
It was Noah arap Too, the CID director.
'Why have you arrested Mr Pattni?' arap Too asked.
Njiraini, for the zenith time, explained that they had only seized some goods pending production of import papers.
It was going to be a long night as Owayo drove into Wilson Airport and went straight to Njiraini’s office.
He called the Custom’s boss, Cheruiyot, hoping to have Pattni’s cargo released.
Njiraini had told Cheruiyot that without the documents, the gold had to go to the warehouse at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for bonding.
With phone calls and the right connections, Pattni walked out with his gold to continue with his fiddle.
Although he had said that the thirty five per cent compensation would enable Goldenberg to compete with smugglers, the Wilson Airport incident indicated otherwise.

🚨 Arsenal have been working on a deal for Ayyoub Bouaddi for several months.
The Gunners have made it clear to the 18-year-old that he would play an important role in their project, with the midfielder understood to be open to the move.
Lille are demanding around €70M for Bouaddi, although Arsenal believe their strong relationship with club president Olivier Létang could help negotiations.
