Yeah that was UEFA. Don't think any team has got that far. Of course we all remember Scotland losing on penalties to Saudi Arabia at Hampden in the U16 final in '89.
I'd be interested to see how many of those players actually played for their clubs in the FLT. Quite a few of them were on loan at FL clubs last season anyway.
I guessed it probably was, but your comment did make me wonder in turn how many of these guys even featured in the tournament. But yes, I'm sure Harvey will be all over this.
Incidentally imagine the meeting the French FA had for that rehearsal tornament when they were awarded the World Cup.

Is this the first world cup final at any age group since 1966?
No, we lost on penalties to Spain earlier this year. U17 I think.
If you are thinking of a month or so back, I think that was European.

Ah, I stand corrected.
A relatively young England team have also reached the final of the Toulon Tournament for the first time since '94.
Oops! Fake news. In real news England have defended their Toulon title. The under 20s attempt to win the World Cup kick off imminent
Well done to England's Under-20s - World Cup winners within a year of Academy teams being allowed in the Checkatrade Trophy....

(Should emphasise, that comment was meant to be ironic, but I can see the win being used by certain people in authority to justify the FLT format.

It was like Le Tournoi all over again in 97.
