England's Under-19s began their European Championships qualification campaign with a stalemate against Montenegro, in which Leeds United youngster Archie Gray made his debut at this particular Three Lions age group.
Gray had been called up to Simon Rusk’s Under-19 squad last month but was forced to withdraw due to a slight fitness concern following extensive involvement during the first month of the 2023/24 season. Leeds’ prodigious youngster earned a second call-up earlier this month, though, and made his England U19 bow from the start in Montenegro on Wednesday evening.
Shortly before half-time, the Leeds teen clipped an inviting free-kick into the penalty area, which Brighton and Hove Albion’s Jack Hinshelwood glanced towards goal, but his header narrowly missed the target. Then, after the restart, Gray found himself involved in an incident with Montenegro’s Stefan Dukanovic following a meaty challenge near the touchline.
