Davies scores for England U19s

Lyndon Lloyd , 1 September, 13comments | Jump to most recent

Everton's Tom Davies scored England Under-19s' only goal as they drew 1-1 with the Netherlands in Telford today.

The 18-year-old was joined in the starting XI by his Finch Farm team-mate Nathan Holland while Antony Evans was named among the substitutes and Davies got onto the scoresheet with a header off a left-wing cross in first-half stoppage time.

The Dutch equalised through Justin Hoogma with seven minutes to go forcing a penalty shootout that England eventually won. Evans replaced Davies with an hour gone while Holland was withdrawn after 80 minutes in favour of Aston Villa's Rushian Hepburn-Murphy.

Elsewhere, at Under-21 level, Gerard Deulofeu captained Spain again this evening who beat ~~Lithuania~~ San Marino 6-0.

Don't get why Davies hasn't been handed a squad number... looked like he was pushing for a 1st team place.

This lad is just going to be one of our best ever products. I've followed him for the last 2 seasons and he has unbelievable stamina. Then add to that already ball skills that will only get better and we have a gem made right here.

Jamie, he's wearing #26 this season.

He's not listed in the final first team squad of 25 because he qualifies as an unlimited Under-21 player.

Jamie, he even made an (very promising, yet brief) appearance in our last game.

Alan #2 This is good news. As Fran said he did put in a brief appearance but nevertheless made quite an impression.

Anyone know if Deulofeu scored?

He got the assist for the second goal but came off after 49 mins.

This lad is going to be a diamond. Especially under Koeman. Hope he gets lots of playing time this season!

There was a touch of the Cahill about his goal.

I like this boy. A very well rounded player; skill, stamina, vision and a good attitude. I am certain that he will develop further into a valuable player for the club.
