England v Portugal
UEFA European U21 Championship Group 3 Qualifier
Wembley Stadium
7.45pm, Friday 5 September 2008
Tickets are now on sale to see England's Under-21s team take on Portugal in a crucial qualifier at Wembley Stadium in September with most seats costing just £10 for adults and £5 for children. Stuart Pearce's side will take on the highly-rated Portuguese side at Wembley on Friday 5 September, kick-off 7.45pm. England currently top the European Championship qualifying group with six wins and a draw. This record looks set to ensure qualification for the Championship play-offs in October.
Portugal need victory to stand any chance of overhauling England’s group lead and win a place alongside England in the play-offs for the 2009 Championship in Sweden.
England Under-21s Coach Stuart Pearce said: “We want the transition to the seniors to be as smooth as possible. Taking this game to Wembley is part of that. A lot of the Under-21 players will never have played there before and the experience of playing this game there will help them as and when they step up to the seniors."
