The International Challenge Trophy
Semi-Final

Princes Park, Dartford FC
Paul Fairclough has named a 16-man squad for the forthcoming International Challenge Trophy semi-final against Turkey.
The England C Manager takes his side to Princes Park, home of Dartford FC, for the game next month and his squad shows four changes from the postponed fixture in Albania in November.
There is a recall for former skipper Kenny Davis of Braintree Town and first call-ups for Sam Wedgbury of Macclesfield Town, Christian Jolley from Newport County and Welling United 'keeper Sam Mott.
Fairclough is mindful of the task that lies ahead with the Turkish side, which effectively their B team, likely to feature experienced players from their top clubs.
He said: “I have seen videos of their recent matches and had them watched when they defeated Wales in November.
"They are a very skilful group of players but I have great faith in my players and if the squad remains fit and there are no late movements in the current transfer window, then I am confident of a positive outcome at Dartford next month."
The England C team is made up of U23 players from below the Football League structure.
