The England side at the 2017 FIFA Under-20 World Cup will play Costa Rica in the last 16 after qualifying from their group, a group that saw Argentina eliminated.
Last 16 Matches
England topped their group, Group A, winning two games and drawing one, thanks to a 50-yard own goal by Manchester United centre-back Oluwafikayomi Oluwadamilola Tomori, a Canadian born Englishman. That was the only goal we have conceded!
We beat Argentina 3-0 with goals from Calvert-Lewin
and Solanke
We then drew 1-1 with Guinea thanks to that own goal after Cook
Our third group game saw us beat host nation South Korea 1-0 thanks to a goal from Dowell
