Young Royals winger James Henry has helped England through to the European U19 Championship finals this summer.

The winger was an unused sub as the Young Lions earned a 0-0 draw with Belarus this weekend, and that secured their passage through to the finals that take place in the Czech Republic this July.

James came on the first game, a 2-0 win over Serbia, then started and scored the only goal in the 1-0 win over Poland.

Brian Eastick's men will take on Czech Republic, Italy and Greece in Group B.

The other group contains, Germany, Spain, Hungary and Bulgaria. Our Academy frontman Radoslav Vasilev is a regular in the Bulgarian squad.

Bulgaria nudged out Iceland in their qualifying campaign, and our midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson scored three goals in three games during the qualifiers but it was not enough.
