Arsenal's rising star Ethan Nwaneri showcased his immense talent during his first start for England's U21 team, scoring a remarkable goal just 10 minutes into the match. The 18-year-old midfielder made an unforgettable impact in England's friendly against Portugal at The Hawthorns, helping England secure a 4-2 victory.
The match began with Hayden Hackney opening the scoring for England in the 7th minute with a precise strike from outside the box. Just three minutes later, Nwaneri doubled the lead with a stunning goal, curling the ball into the bottom corner after a clever assist from Jobe Bellingham.
Portugal responded in the 22nd minute, with Fábio Silva tapping in a well-placed cross to reduce the deficit. England regained control in the second half when Omari Hutchinson nodded home from close range, making it 3-1. Despite Carlos Forbs pulling one back for Portugal in the 85th minute, Jaden Philogene sealed the victory for England with a composed finish in added time.
This milestone adds to Nwaneri's impressive season, where he has already made waves in the Premier League with Arsenal.
