Arsenal youth duo Jack Porter and Marli Salmon are away with England at the u17 World Cup at the moment, and the team reached the last-16 of the competition with a win over South Korea over the weekend.

Porter was making his fourth consecutive start in the competition for the last-32 match, and he kept a clean sheet in a 2-0 win to help England into the next round.

The clean sheet was Porter’s second in a row, having also prevented Egypt from netting in England’s final 3-0 group-stage victory.

England will now face Austria in the last-16 on Tuesday, November 18th at 15:45 GMT. The game will be live on ITV4 in the UK, and it should be available on FIFA+ everywhere else.

Arsenal defender Salmon is yet to feature on the pitch for England, so he’ll hope to get a chance in the remaining knockout fixtures.
