England fans demand Thomas Tuchel calls up under-21 star after wondergoal against Portugal

England fans are demanding Thomas Tuchel calls up an under-21 star following his stunning strike in tonight's game.

England's senior side are facing Latvia at Wembley Stadium in their second World Cup qualifier of their campaign following last Friday's match against Albania.

The Three Lions beat Albania 2-0 as Tuchel kicked off a new era with a victory.

The senior team aren't the only England team in action tonight as Lee Carsley's under-21s are facing Portugal at The Hawthorns, having been involved in the 'most expensive youth game' against France.

And the under-21s raced into a two-goal lead inside the opening 10 minutes.

Middlesbrough's Hayden Hackney opened the scoring before Arsenal starlet Ethan Nwaneri doubled his team's advantage.

Nwaneri, who made his England under-21 debut last week, was handed a start against Portugal and wasted no time in repaying his manager's faith.

The 18-year-old cut onto his left foot before curling home a sensational strike into the back of the net.

Fans on social media reckon Tuchel should add the teenage phenom to his next squad.

One X user wrote: "Ethan Nwaneri playing with under 21 looks like 25 yr old playing with 16 yr old... Tuchel do your thing."

A second added: "I will be there when Ethan Nwaneri gets his England call up."

Ethan Nwaneri should not be 'rushed' into the England squad

His club teammate Myles Lewis-Skelly is already in Tuchel's plans, but former Arsenal great Martin Keown believes Nwaneri shouldn't be rushed even though he's in better form than Jack Grealish and Phil Foden.

"I think we've got to do this slowly," Keown explained.

"We don't want to be pushing these players right the way through, but I'm not really seeing too many players [to get in front of Nwaneri]."

Keown added: "I'm looking at Grealish not playing, Foden now not at his best - he's still a great player of course.

"Looking around for other alternatives, I don't think Nwaneri is a million miles away.

"It may be that he plays [Under] 21s football, he's 17 years of age, so let's not get carried away."
