England are U19 Euros champions for the second time, after coming from behind to beat Israel 3-1 in extra-time.
The Young Lions fell behind after 40 minutes when Israel midfielder Oscar Gloukh's brilliant solo strike put them in front.
Callum Doyle levelled the game for England in the second half and both teams didn't not manage to win the game inside the 90 minutes.
In extra-time, Ian Foster's side were stronger and took the lead, when Harvey Vale's brilliant cross caused confusion in the Israel defence and the Aston Villa midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka chested it over the line.
A superb run by substitute Liam Delap, forced a save from the keeper who spilled it into the path of Aaron Ramsey, who tapped in and put the game to bed with less than five minutes to play.
The 2020 and 2021 editions of the tournament cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, so this is the second time in the last four editions that the Young Lions won the U19 European championship, after tasting success in 2017.
