England winger Bukayo Saka has admitted that the national team is still carrying the emotional "scar" of their heartbreaking 2026 World Cup semi-final defeat to Argentina, even as they prepare to launch a new Nations League campaign. Despite bouncing back to claim third place with a thrilling 6-4 victory over France in the bronze medal match, the disappointment of missing out on the ultimate prize lingers.
