England 1-1 France

The England Under-17s have drawn their second game of the Algarve tournament after Shane Paul's goal secured a 1-1 draw with France.

Serge Gakpe opened the scoring for Les Bleus on the 13th minute when his effort had the better of Middlesbrough 'keeper David Knight.

However, the Three Lions battled back to earn their second point, following Saturday's draw with hosts Portugal, when Paul struck just after the break.

It was a 49th minute penalty from the Aston Villa man, his second goal in an England shirt this season, that puts John Peacock's side in good spirits ahead of Tuesday's final match with Finland.

England U17: David Knight (Middlesbrough), Richard Stearman (Liecester City), David Wheater (Middlesbrough), Michael Mancienne (Chelsea), Nathan Ashton (Charlton Athletic), Mark Noble (c) (West Ham Utd), Nathan Doyle (Derby County), Mark Davies (Wolves), Shane Paul (Aston Villa), Myles Weston (Charlton Athletic), Fraizer Campbell (Man Utd).
