BUKAYO SAKA grabbed an impressive hat-trick as England swept aside their visitors from the Balkans, in front of 70,708 at Old Trafford on Monday evening.

Captain Harry Kane grabbed a brace, including a second half penalty as Gareth Southgate’s side proved to be simply too good for Blagoja Milevski’s team.

Marcus Rashford and Kalvin Phillips were the other scorers as the Three Lions made it four wins from four in Group C, as qualification for next summer’s European Championship looms ever nearer.
