England lost to Spain in the U-17 Football European championships 1-0 with Krkic (of Croatian parents) scoring the victory goal.

 

Nevertheless, it's England's best result in the age category and it allowed a first-time presence in the U-17 World Cup in Korea, due to take place this summer.

Well this is good news for England. :D

 

Will be interesting to see how many players who played in this game actually get to make their debuts for senior England team though.

Hopefully quite a few, I'd love to see the likes of Franks and Porritt play first team football at Boro eventually too :D
