Group F : England 6 pts, Irak 4 pts, Mexico 1 pt, Chile, 0 pt.
England send warning to their rivals as the Young Lions earned their second win in a row against Chile (3-2).

After assisting the England’s second goal, the Borussia Dortmund player Jordan Sancho got his name on the scoresheet as he converted a penalty. In the last minutes, Diego Lainez scored a brace but it wasn’t enough to stop England claiming victory.
