Click here for Germany vs England 1-0 March 22, 2017 Highlights
England U17 just put eight goals past Germany U17 in a four nations tournament in Croatia earlier today. It completes an impressive tournament for the young Lions, who beat Croatia 5-0 and Greece 3-0 in previous games in the 2016 Croatia Cup. Against Germany, young Manchester United teenager Angel Gomes, the cousin of former United star Nani, scored a goal and had two assists. Gomes also captained the squad.
The score against the Germans was 6-1 in favour of England at half time!
That effectively means a haul of 16 goals and one conceded in the tournament for this U17 team. Will we see the return of the Jules Rimet Trophy to English shores back in 2022 or 2026?
