But William had multiple troops
They were, archers, infantry and the winners of the battle the cavalry
The wall that the Saxons made a shield wall which was almost impregnable but then some of William's troops started to retreat
The Saxons couldn't help but go after them

This tactic was repeated again and again
After the majority of the Saxons were dead or dying the Normans fired arrows down on the and this killed Harold Godwinson
After that a death squad came and finished of Harold
