With Jack Porter pulling out of the international break due to injury, Max Dowman and Theo Julienne are the two Arsenal youngsters remaining in the England u17s this month.

Both players featured in England’s first game of the break, a friendly against Belgium, though they didn’t spend any time on the pitch at the same time.

Dowman started the match, playing 74 minutes before coming off for Aston Villa’s Jack McGrath, and Julienne was introduced for Wes Okoduwa at the same time.

The match was a 1-1 draw, with Ryan McAidoo providing England’s equaliser after Belgium had taken the lead from the penalty spot. The friendly went to a penalty shootout, for the sake of practice, and Belgium won that spot-kick battle.

England will have an immediate opportunity to take revenge on Monday, November 18th at 11:00 GMT, facing the same opposition in another friendly to complete the break. Julienne will hope to make the starting lineup next time around.
