England booked their place in the final of the 2022 UEFA European Under 19 Championship by beating Italy 2-1 in the last four on Tuesday.

The Young Lions fell behind to a penalty from Juventus midfielder Fabio Miretti but turned the semi-final around with second-half goals from Bristol City's Alex Scott and Liverpool's Jarell Quansah.

Nineteen-year-old defender Quansah nodded home a late winner after getting on the end of Harvey Vale's corner via an unintentional Cesare Casadei flick-on.

Quansah celebrated in the style of NBA icon Steph Curry by mimicking his famous 'Night Night' pose.

Warrington-born Quansah has been a key player for England at this summer's U19 Euros.

But Quansah has yet to represent Liverpool at first-team level, though he featured in two EFL Trophy games for the club's Under 21 side last season - a 4-1 loss to Bolton and a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Port Vale.

England will now meet Israel in Friday's final at Slovakia's Anton Malatinsky Stadium.

Israel beat France 2-1 in Tuesday's second semi-final.

England will start the final as strong favorites, having finished five points above Israel in Group B and having beaten them 1-0 earlier in the tournament.
