Germany v England
International U19 Friendly
8.15pm, Wednesday 14 November 2007
Waldstadion Kaiserlinde, Elversberg
Brian Eastick has named his squad for the friendly against Germany this month, as he prepares his players for the European Championship elite qualifying round next year.
Henri Lansbury has moved up to the U19 age group after enjoying a fine U17 World Cup in August. Lansbury was part of the side that reached the quarter-finals in Korea, and scored in England's famous group stage victory over Brazil.
Eniola Aluko's younger brother Sone returns to the squad, where he will have the opportunity to link up with Tope Obadeyi once again after some fine attacking play earlier this season in a friendly against Belarus.
England ran out comfortable qualifiers from the Preliminary qualifying round in October, beating Iceland, Romania and Belgium to top the group with nine points, scoring 14 goals in the process.
