Morgan Gibbs-White receives 'shock' Nottingham Forest response to England heroics

Nottingham Forest ace Morgan Gibbs-White starred for England Under-21s as they booked a place in the semi-finals of the European Championship.

Lee Carsley's side beat Portugal 1-0 in Sunday's quarter-final tie at the Shengelia Arena in Kutaisi, Georgia. Gibbs-White played the full 90 minutes and set up the winning goal for Anthony Gordon.

The Newcastle winger, operating as a central forward, pounced 10 minutes before half-time to clinically finish a good passing move. Despite some late Portuguese pressure which saw Henrique Araujo’s effort rebound off the crossbar with goalkeeper James Trafford beaten, England – who have yet to concede a goal at the tournament – held on to set up a meeting with Israel, whom they beat 2-0 in the group phase, on Wednesday.
