Internationals: Nketiah nets hat-trick for England
Seven of our first-team stars were in action during the last round of October internationals. Scroll down to find out how they got on:
Eddie Nketiah scored a perfect hat-trick for England Under-21s in their Euro 2021 qualifying win over Austria. Our young striker turned in twice from close range and also headed home in the Young Lions' win. It's Eddie's first hat-trick at under-21 international level, taking his tally to eight goals in as many games for Aidy Boothroyd's side.
He could even have scored a fourth but saw his penalty saved with five minutes left. Chelsea's Callum Hudson-Odoi completed the scoring with two goals, while Joe Willock played 74 minutes.
