Related Topics: Freddie Woodman

Ainsley Maitland-Niles is an Under-20 World Cup winner.

The 19-year-old came on as a 76th-minute substitute as Paul Simpson's side beat Venezuela 1-0 in Sunday's final, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin's first-half goal and a penalty save from Freddie Woodman proving decisive.

It's the first time any England team has won a global tournament since the senior side won the 1966 World Cup final at Wembley.

Massive congratulations to you, Ainsley.
