Internationals: Nketiah scores twice for England

Eddie Nketiah scored twice to help England Under-21s reach the final of the Toulon Tournament on Wednesday evening.

Our teenage striker was given the nod to start over regular forward Tammy Abraham and, after Scotland took an early lead through Michael Johnston’s goal, he more than justified his inclusion.

Having already seen a low shot cannon off the woodwork, Nketiah was once more involved just moments later. Following a neat team move, the 19-year-old rolled the ball across the face of goal for Callum Connolly to convert from close range.

Then, just five minutes after the restart, England struck again.
