England's 'golden generation' have done it. They've not only lifted the U20 World Cup after a superb win against Venezuela this afternoon, but a number of players have earned a huge reputation in the process.
From Dominic Solanke to Lewis Cook and Ovie Ejari, the England squad have done themselves proud in the past few weeks.
One player in particular who has shone among the rest is Liverpool's winger Sheyi Ojo.

The 19-year-old has been touted as a real prospect in the academy and his true potential shone throughout the tournament.
Ojo joined the club at the age of 14, but has been hindered by recurring injury problems. Despite constant set backs, Liverpool are convinced that the youngster is a real talent.
A host of top European clubs were chasing the youngster, but he eventually joined the Reds in a reported £2 million deal.

Ojo thanked god for the victory in an emotional Twitter post after the 1-0 win.
He said: "We've done it!! World Champions!! This wouldn't have been possible without God. Feeling so blessed. A dream come true."
