International watch: Frimpong strike seals England win
Picture from: thefa.com
England 1 Germany 0
A goal from Emmanuel Frimpong was enough for England under-16s to see off Germany 1-0 in their second game of the Montaigu Tournament on Friday. Frimpong struck on 71 minutes after a bursting run from midfield. Frimpong played the entire game, whilst Luke Freeman and Sam Byles came on as substitutes in the second half, Oliver Nicholas didn’t feature. England are now three points clear at the top of Group B, and face USA at 3pm tomorrow in their final group stage match.

THE BEST GAME OF THE TOURNAMENT WAS ENGLAND V GERMANY. TOUGHEST GAME OUT OF THE LOT. THE BEST PLAYER FOR GERMANY WAS NO: 10 UP AGAINST KEANU MARSH-BROWN FOR ENGLAND, WHO, HAD COMPLETE CONTROL. KEANU IS AN VERY EXCELLENT PLAYER WITH GREAT MOVEMENT, EXCITING TO WATCH. OPENS UP THE GAME FOR BAXTER AND FRIMPONG. SAM BYLES IS NOT A GOOD RIGHT-BACK ARE YOU SURE THAT IS HIS NATURAL POSITION. MADE FAR TO MUCH MISTAKES AND GAVE AWAY THE BALL 80% OF THE TIME. TOO SMALL IN HEIGHT AND NOT STRONG ENOUGH. TO BE FAIR OUT OF HIS DEPTH ON THE INTERNATIONAL GAMES.
