England U17 4 Chile U17 0: Jadon Sancho, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Angel Gomes strike to give World Cup boost
Chelsea, Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund starlets score as young Three Lions collect three points at the Salt Lake Stadium
ENGLAND UNDER-17s have kicked off their World Cup qualifying campaign in style with an encouraging 4-0 victory.
Rising stars Jadon Sancho, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Angel Gomes found the net to secure three points at the Salt Lake Stadium.
Two of England's most promising talents combined brilliantly to give the Three Lions an advantage after just 14 minutes.
Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho threaded the ball through to 16-year-old Callum Hudson-Odoi, who kept his composure and slotted into the net past Julio Borquez.
Liverpool ace Rhian Brewster missed a golden opportunity to double England's tally, but he missed the strike from just yards out.
Chile struggled to get out of second gear and after 30 minutes they were still yet to test England keeper Curtis Anderson.
A chance fell for Chilean Maximiliano Guerro before the break, but the long-range strike flew way over the woodwork.
After half-time, Brewster sent a cross into the box that was helped into the path of Sancho by the hand of Borquez.
The ball falls kindly to the Bundesliga stars feet and he calmly slots the ball into an open net to make it 2-0.
His second goal came shortly after, with George McEachran bagging a deserved assist. Sancho picked the ball up in the area and struck into the net effortlessly.
Chile went down to ten-men with ten minutes to go after keeper Borquez decided to sprint out of his goal and launch a reckless challenge.
An outfield player was forced to stick on the goalkeeping jersey for the remainder of the fixture.
Manchester United ace Angel Gomes made the most of the opportunity and struck the ball past the helpless makeshift goalkeeper and into the net.
