Saka scored from the spot to remedy his miss in the Euro 2020 final, and curled in England’s equaliser in the 80th minute.

He was a thorn in Switzerland’s side throughout despite playing in a less familiar right wing-back role and his performance was rewarded with the Player of the Match award.

Saka celebrated the huge victory in the stands with his partner Tolami, giving her a hug.

The Arsenal star also presented her with his award, and Tolami took to Instagram to pose with the gong.

In one snap she aimed a kiss at the trophy as she captioned the post: “My baby’s baby 🏆”

All five of England’s takers converted to make it a perfect set of pens and Saka was asked about exorcising his Wembley demons.

He said: “It’s something I embrace. It was special, very special, how we fought back. The last time we went to penalties we all know what happened.

“You can fail once but you have a choice whether you put yourself in that position again or not. I’m a guy who is going to put myself in that position. I believed in myself.
