Israel 0-3 England (Gibbs-White 42, Palmer 63, Archer 90)Young Lions will play Spain in the Batumi final
Lee Carsley’s England Under-21 side has a chance to emulate Dave Sexton’s class of 1982 and 1984 and become European champions on Saturday, after defeating Israel in their semi-final on Wednesday night.
England reached the showpiece thanks to a Morgan Gibbs-White masterclass that featured his opening strike of the tournament, a key role in Cole Palmer’s second, plus numerous flicks and runs – all the more impressive as it came after an early penalty miss. Cameron Archer’s 90-minute finish made this an emphatic victory and in the final England will face Spain in Batumi, Georgia.
