The pitch is better than the stream tho

 

[AZ Gull]

Seems they might have lost power in the stadium.

Match back underway.

 

[AZ Gull]

Dunk is on the bench - Stones and Maguire start.

 

[AZ Gull]

Billy Gilmour starts for Scotland against France.

Maguire favoured over Dunk is a joke but of course completely expected.

Dunky has to start, has been our best player in his two starts since returning to the England team. You just know he won’t though. Bloody Maguire will play.

So predictable. Poor Lewis.

Gilmour scored! Lovely goal as well. Finally got his first professional goal.

Great assist from the French player!

Tuesday's (almost complete) summary of the Albion action:-

England beat Italy 3-1 and in the perfect combination of events, the Three Lions qualify for EURO 2024 and Lewis Dunk gets a nice rest in advance of Albion's match at Man City on Saturday.

Simon Adingra was also an unused substitute as the Ivory Coast drew 1-1 at home to South Africa.

Billy Gilmour started for Scotland, scored after 11 minutes and played 76 minutes as the Scots were hammered 4-1 by France.

Yasin Ayari played the whole match as the Swedish U-21s drew 0-0 in Georgia in a qualifier.

James Beadle played the whole match for the England U-20 side but a 94th minute winner saw Portugal emerge victorious by a score of 2-1 in this European Elite League fixture. England's goal was scored by Emran Soglo, who was on the bench for Marseille against Albion two weeks ago.

Jack Hinshelwood played the whole match (and picked up a booking) as the England U-19 side could only draw 0-0 with Austria and failed to advance to the Elite Round. Hinshelwood played every minute of the three qualifiers.

Pascal Gross and Germany play later today - I'll update in due course.

Hmmm...Gross playing in the early hours of tomorrow morning in MEXICO....can't see him starting on Saturday :-(

So it's just as well the match is taking place in Philadelphia.

 

[AZ Gull]

Pascal Gross played just the first half as Germany drew 2-2 with Mexico in Philadelphia.

And with that, the October international break is done. We do it all again .... in 4 weeks time.
