England Cut Slightly In World Cup Outright Betting After 6-2 Iran Win

Brazil remain the World Cup outright favourites @ 33/10 with BetUK.
Bellingham and Saka Star For Three Lions
Jude Bellingham, who plays his domestic football at Borussia Dortmund, got the Three Lions rolling with the opening goal in their 6-2 win over Iran – which was also the 19 year-old’s first international goal.
Bellingham also became the second youngest England player to score at the World Cup Finals, behind Michael Owen, who scored that famous goal against Argentina at the 1998 finals.
Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka was also one of the stars with two England goals and in the process became the youngest player at 21 to score two World Cup goals for England in the Finals.
The game also had a stack of injury-time after Iran goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand clashed with one of this own players in the first half with the game still at 0-0 at the time. The tried to carry on but was subbed off in the end, which led to many asking what is the new concussion protocol in place at the 2022 FIFA World Cup Finals?
