Another big day of World Cup football, as Italy were knocked out of the competition as Paraguay and Slovakia progressed from Group F, whereas mighty Holland and Japan topped Group E thanks to some wonderful goals in their respective matches!

England under 17s overcame a tough final against Spain to win their first u-17 European Championship. I thought I’d take a look and pick out two stars for the future and see what football boots they are currently wearing.
