Watch Elliot Embleton put England Under-19s 3-1 up with a delightful strike at the European U19 Championships

Sunderland's Elliot Embleton capped a brilliant performance with a curling strike in England Under-19s' 3-2 win over Turkey.

Reigning European Under-19 champions England were indebted to the Black Cats midfielder, who was the architect behind turning the young Lions' opening game of this year's tournament on its head.

They trailed inside 90 seconds when Guven Yalcin's header gave Turkey a shock lead, but levelled when Embleton's free-kick was turned in by Japhet Tanganga, before Ben Brereton profited from another assist to put them in front.

And the midfielder, who turned 19 in April, put England two goals ahead after half-time with a sweet strike, which proved crucial once Metehan Guclu pulled Turkey back within a goal only minutes later.
