While his club future is unclear as interest in his signature remains significant, Bristol City’s Alex Scott and England got their Under-20 World Cup campaign underway against Tunisia in Argentina.
Ian Foster’s side secured a 1-0 win over their North African opponents following Dane Scarlett’s first-half header. But England didn’t have to be anywhere near their best, with Tunisia struggling to carry any genuine threat and goalkeeper Matthew Cox only had one genuine save to make midway through the second period.
The lack of real challenge posed made it far from a classic to watch, with England dominating possession without the cutting edge to put Tunisia to the sword. However, it is tournament football after all and starting with three points is all that really matters.
