Match Preview:
England Under-19s face a high-stakes encounter against the already-qualified Netherlands Under-19s on Monday evening, with a spot in the European Championship semi-finals on the line. The Dutch youth side has been dominant, securing top spot in Group B with two wins and no goals conceded. England, currently second with two points, sits precariously ahead of Norway and Germany, making this final group game a must-win (or at least a draw with favorable other results).

England's tournament has been a rollercoaster. They kicked off with a 2-2 draw against Norway, followed by a remarkable comeback from 5-1 down to draw 5-5 with Germany, showcasing incredible resilience. Manager Will Antwi will likely field a strong side, with Manchester United's Ethan Wheatley expected to lead the attack.

The Netherlands, having already secured their semi-final berth, may opt to rest key players, potentially giving opportunities to Kasper Boogard, Owen Panneflek, and Sven van der Plas. However, Don-Angelo Konadu is still expected to feature in their attack. Despite potential rotations, the Dutch will still provide stern opposition. This match promises to be a gripping affair, with England needing to dig deep to secure their passage to the knockout stages.

Match Prediction: Draw
