UEFA Under 21 Championship: England to take on Israel in semifinal

Will England U21 reach the final of the UEFA Under 21 Championship? It is a pertinent question considering the fact that they have not lost a single match in the tournament so far. If they reach the final, they will take on Georgia.

England U21 will next take on Israel U21, a team they have thrashed in the group stage. The Young Lions will have to take on Isreal U21 without Jacob Ramsey, who has been ruled out for the rest of the tournament due to an injury. The Aston Villa midfielder has played well, but he got injured.

England have Gareth Southgate who helped them in the second shootout.


But, Lee Carsley’s side has Arsenal star Emile Smith Rowe and Newcastle player Anthony Gordon.

England are favorite, but they have not won this championship in this age group since 1984. They were put in the same group as reigning champions Germany, and the Czech Republic.

The UEFA Under-21 Championship, the UEFA European Under-21 Championship, or simply the Euro Under-21 is held every two years. It was launched in 1978.

Germany are the reigning champions. England have reached the semi-final for the first time after 2017 when Germany ousted them in a penalty shootout.

The UEFA website will broadcast the match live, while Standard Sports will have a dedicated live blog.
