England U21 1-0 Spain U21: England win U21 Euros for first time in 39 years

[ad_1]

England U21 v Spain U21

England goalkeeper James Trafford saved a 99th-minute penalty as the Young Lions won the U21 European Championships for the first time in almost 40 years with a dramatic victory over Spain.

After Levi Colwill fouled Abel Ruiz in the box in added time, Trafford kept Ruiz’s low spot-kick out and produced another brilliant stop on the follow-up to secure England’s victory.

The winning goal came with virtually the last kick of the first half when Cole Palmer’s free-kick deflected off team-mate Curtis Jones and wrong-footed goalkeeper Arnau Tenas to find the corner of the net.

Spain, who had scored 13 goals in the tournament prior to the final, thought they had equalised in the second half, but Abel Ruiz’s headed goal was ruled out for offside.

Despite the late drama, the Young Lions held on to secure victory, becoming the first team to record six successive clean sheets in the competition’s history.

It means Lee Carsley’s talented side are the third England team to win the competition after previously picking up the trophy in 1982 and 1984.
