England men’s under-18s ended their October trip to Marbella on a high by beating Ukraine 3-1 on Monday afternoon.
A first-half brace for Callum Olusesi provided the inspiration for the victory, before Ukraine pulled a goal back before the break to make for an interesting second half.
Liam Bramley’s side got off to the best possible start, taking the lead after nine minutes through Olusesi, who was assisted by Ben Broggio.
And the Tottenham man was at it again in the 33rd minute, with Trevan Sanusi teeing him up to score his and England’s second goal.
Ukraine pulled one back with an effort fired into the top corner two minutes before half time, meaning the Young Lions led 2-1 going into the break.
The Young Lions sealed their victory in the second half though when West Ham's Airidas Golambeckis grabbed England's third goal to ensure a winning end to October's camp.
