Andre Harriman-Annous was a late call-up to the England u20 squad, replacing injured West Bromwich Albion youngster Jimmy-Jay Morgan.

The Arsenal youth striker didn’t feature in the u20s’ first game of the break, but he came on for his debut in the second match against France on Tuesday.

Harriman-Annous played the final 16 minutes of the game, a key 2-1 win to maintain England’s 100% record in the Euro Elite League. Poland and Germany are the only other two teams to have won their first two games of the break, with England to face Germany next on Saturday.

Ibrahim played the opening hour of the match, coming off with England in a 2-1 lead. Arsenal teammate Max Dowman came on for the final half-hour, seeing out the victory.

The u19s have two more games to play against the United States and Belgium.
