Chelsea forward scores as England youngsters hit eight

Chelsea’s Dominic Solanke scored as England Under-20s trashed Nigeria 8-1.

England’s youngsters are playing in the Continental Cup in South Korea, which will host the next Under-20 World Cup.

They were 4-0 up by half-time and Solanke scored the third goal in a one-sided game in which Chelsea’s Izzy Brown, who is currently on loan at Rotherham, also featured.

Adam Armstrong of Newcastle netted a hat-trick, Manchester City’s former Fulham forward Patrick Roberts scored twice and there were also goals for Everton’s Callum Connolly and Taylor Moore of Bristol City.
