Harvey Elliott inspired England Under-21s to a 2-1 victory over the Netherlands, securing a place in the European Championships final. After his two goals, Elliott's performance highlighted his potential, as he aims for first-team opportunities at Liverpool. The win, characterized by his skillful strikes and pivotal moments, came after the Netherlands equalized with a long-range effort from Noah Ohio. England, now set to face either Germany or France in the final, seeks a fourth title, with Elliott playing a crucial role in their success so far.
Elliott handed England a 62nd-minute lead when he collected Elliot Anderson's pass before rifling the ball home at Robin Roefs' near post with his weaker right foot.
However, Elliott snatched the win late on after cutting inside from the right-hand side, sending a fizzing low drive from just inside the area into the bottom-right corner.
Elliott has expressed his desire to seek first-team football after falling down the pecking order at Liverpool, and he did his chances of a transfer no harm.
With Elliott on song, Carsley's team will be confident of adding another title to their trophy cabinet.
