Andre Dozzell played the full 80 minutes and Ben Morris came on as a 69th minute sub as England’s U17s lost 2-1 to Sweden in their opening game at the European Championships in Azerbaijan.

Sunderland's Joel Asoro netted for the Swedes in the fourth and 59th minutes with Arsenal's Reiss Nelson pulling one back for England on 62.

Midfielder Dozzell was winning his 13th U17s cap, while striker Morris picked up his seventh.

The U17s face current holders France on Monday, before they complete their group fixtures with a match against Denmark on Thursday.
