BUKAYO SAKA'S proud girlfriend Tolami Benson posed with his Player of the Match trophy after England's win over Switzerland.
The Three Lions progressed to the Euro 2024 semi-final after winning 5-3 on penalties following a 1-1 draw after extra-time.
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.
“To come back from something like that was really difficult but I used it to make me stronger.
“We know there are two more games until we can change our lives and make some history that’s never been made before. We’re really focused on that.
“Hopefully in the next game we can win in 90 minutes. But if this is what it takes we will do anything.”

Did you notice that European teams are using African Strength to try and Win trophies. for example France fielded a team of black players against Portugal .... I mean almost all European teams are at least have one or two black guy in the team and the guys are so strong and reliable .Rule number one ☝🏾 these guys called the whites should stop racism and accept the fact that we're all equal and created by one God

As a black English man, I have to say that if there was as much racism displayed by white people on this app as there is by the black people, then this app would have had to close down due to the amount of complaints. There is so much racism to people of other cultures that aren’t black in the comment section that it is a disgrace that some black people will then go on to complain of racism. It is pure hypocrisy and it needs to stop. So you African guys who comment racism on here please stop and think about what you were doing. Racism promotes racism and if you are racist towards people of other cultures, then they are going to be racist towards us whether we come from the Caribbean ,Africa Brazil, et cetera. perhaps if you got out of your hometown/villages and saw some of the planet, you would realise that it’s inhabited by all cultures, which are all beautiful and all have a good and bad about them. Treat people how you want to be treated chumps. Time for change

What has love got to do with colour?🙄 People with your type of mindset are the ones that will bring more problems to the world.
