Hayes Saves Penalty and Dozzell Skippers as England U17s Draw With Germany - Ipswich Town News

Keeper Nick Hayes saved a penalty and midfielder Andre Dozzell skippered as England’s U17s drew 2-2 with Germany in their second game at the Torneio Internacional do Algarve this afternoon.

The third Town academy player in the squad, striker Ben Morris, came on as a second-half sub.

Dozzell was subbed at half-time with England 2-0 in front via a brace from Sheffield Wednesday’s George Hirst, the son of former Owl David.

Hayes maintained his side’s two-goal lead when he saved a German penalty midway through the second half.

However, goals from Florian Baak on 73 and deep in injury time Renat Dadashov saw the game end level, as England’s opening match against Portugal had on Friday.

Hayes, who was an unused sub against the Portuguese, was winning his third U17 cap, Dozzell his eighth and Morris his second.

The England youngsters play their final game of the tournament against Holland on Tuesday.
