Boss Aidy Boothroyd had described his squad as soldiers and artists and the Young Lions almost added the substance to Foden’s style in a battling second-half display. Watched by senior boss Gareth Southgate and his assistant Steve Holland the Young Lions showed no early nerves and James Maddison’s whipped free-kick was palmed away from Paul Bernardoni. Lyon’s Dembele, France’s biggest threat, fired wide soon after the re-start, but England went ahead thanks to Foden’s wonderful strike after 54 minutes. But England were again let off the hook when Aouar’s 66th minute spot kick hit the post. Yet the Young Lions failed to hold on after France’s constant pressure and conceded two late goals.
