England U-19s Defeat Norway 2-0

Liverpool’s Charles opened the scoring midway through the first half, but was replaced soon afterwards by Brighton-bound Alessia Russo.

With England in control at St. George’s Park Mo Marley rang the changes in the second half.

But that did not disrupt England’s rhythm and Brazil of Birmingham City made the win certain 10 minutes from time.
