What happened to 11 Liverpool starlets who tasted international glory

Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott were crowned European champions with England on Saturday evening as the young Lions defeated Spain.

Lee Carsley’s side, who had won all five of their games en-route to the final without conceding a goal, ran out 1-0 winners to become only the third England side to win the Under-21s European Championships. Jones netted the winning goal on the night and was named Player of the Match for his performance.

The young Lions twice won the tournament in the eighties, in 1982 and 1984, but had only once reached the final since then with Liverpool legend James Milner part of the side that lost to Germany in 2009.
