Manchester City striker and son of ex-Carlisle United star targets Euro glory with England Under-19s

Liam Delap, whose dad Rory starred for the Cumbrians, is among the players who will be hoping to help the Young Lions win the championship.

Ian Foster's side take on Israel in the final in Slovakia.

Manchester City striker Delap, 19, was an unused sub as England came from behind to beat Italy in the semi-final.

He has, meanwhile, recent experience of scoring against Israel, Delap having hit the winner against Friday's opposition in the group stages.

That came in the teenager's only start so far in the tournament, the frontman having also made one sub appearance.

Second-half goals from Alex Scott and Jarell Quansah saw Foster's side overhaul Italy to win 2-1 in their semi.

Israel surprisingly saw off France by a similar scoreline to book their own place in the final.

England's progress to the semi-finals had already also secured qualification for the FIFA Under-20 World Cup in Indonesia next year.

Now they will bid to emulate sides such as Paul Simpson's Under-20 World Cup winners of 2017 by bringing home another major youth international trophy.

Highly-rated Delap has been on Man City's books since 2019 having moved from Derby County.

Already with one first-team goal to his name, the forward has been linked with a loan move ahead of the 2022/23 season to gain more senior experience.

Tomorrow's final, at the Trnava Stadium, kicks off at 7pm.

It is available to watch on the BBC via the red button, the BBC Sport Website and the BBC iPlayer, as well as via UEFA.tv.
