England player ratings vs Ukraine: Bukayo Saka dazzles as Kyle Walker dominates Mykhailo Mudryk

England made it back-to-back wins to open their Euro 2024 qualifying group as they cruised to a 2-0 success against Ukraine.

Bukayo Saka was the star of the show for Gareth Southgate's side, setting up the first goal with a wonderful cross for Harry Kane to turn in his 55th England goal.

And then Saka then curled home a world-class second to double the lead as the Three Lions took a firm grasp atop Group C after the opening two games.
