Tammy Abraham has top-flight quality, says England Under 21 interim boss Aidy Boothroyd after debut goals

England Under-21 interim boss Aidy Boothroyd hailed Tammy Abraham's dream debut after he helped dismantle Bosnia 5-0.

The Bristol City striker, on loan from Chelsea, marked his full bow with two goals and has now netted 13 times in 15 games for club and country this season.

John Swift, Josh Onomah and Duncan Watmore also scored as the Young Lions, who had already qualified for Euro 2017, ended the campaign unbeaten and top of Group 9.
