England 3-1 Portugal

Under 17 International Tournament
Priestfield Stadium, Gillingham
05 September 2004

John Peacock's U17s won the Pepsi International Tournament at Gillingham's Priestfield Stadium this evening as they made it three wins from three matches.

England, who are using this Pepsi Tournament as the start of their building-up towards the UEFA European U17 Championship qualifiers early next year, domintade the match from start to finish and were deserved winners.

They took the lead when Nottingham Forest midfielder Lewis McGugan scored his first goal for the U17s and his strike was soon followed by another from Charlton Athletic's Myles Weston.

England made it three 3-1 when Blackburn Rovers forward Joe Garner scored for the third game in succession.
