It was a fruitful international break for youngsters Ethan Nwaneri and Max Dowman, who both got on the scoresheet for England’s youth teams in September.
Ethan scored England Under-19s’ first goal in a 2-2 friendly draw with Italy as well as an equaliser in a 3-2 defeat against Germany. He also came on in the 68th minute of a 1-1 draw with Croatia.
Myles Lewis-Skelly, Ayden Heaven and Tommy Setford were also involved for the Young Lions.
Against Germany, Ethan almost scored an incredible goal after showing excellent footwork to shift the ball onto his left foot and aim for the top left corner, but the goalkeeper tipped it over the bar.
