England men’s under-18s continued their unbeaten March camp with a 2-1 victory over the Netherlands to lift the U18 Pinatar Super Cup.
The Young Lions went into the match knowing they only needed a draw to win the mini tournament out in Spain, following Wednesday’s 2-1 win over Czechia and Friday’s 0-0 draw with Germany.
And goals from Leo Black and Leon Chiwome either side of half-time secured another win for the MU18s, who are being led for the rest of the 2023-24 season by interim head coach Tom Curtis.
Midfielder Samu Amo-Ameyaw, who has already made his first-team debut for Southampton was voted Player of the Tournament, with Liverpool striker Jayden Danns and Tottenham full-back Leo Black, also impressing during the tournament, and perhaps following in the footsteps of players such as Musiala and Bellingham, who have also made their mark at Pinatar Arena in previous tournaments
Mastoras from the Netherlands, the German Noah Darvich, current FC Barcelona player, and the Czech Samuel Pikolon also stood out during the tournament.
The final table of the Costa Cálida Supercup saw Germany finishing as runners up with the Czech Republic third on goal difference and the Netherlands team in fourth position.
This tournament has directly generated more than a thousand hotel rooms in the area of San Pedro del Pinatar during the 8 days of the event, consolidating Pinatar Arena as one of the reference destinations in the world of international football.
