United goalkeeper Bayindir helped give Nagelsmann a nightmare on his home debut

Türkiye was a bit quiet with the United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir between the bars, picking up a strong away win against Germany in a private international on Saturday evening and at the same time giving Julian Nagelsmann a bad start in his debut on home soil as manager of the German national team.

Germany took the lead after just five minutes when Arsenal’s Kai Havertz rounded Bayindir. However, Türkiye responded through goals from Ferdi Kadioglu and Kenan Yildiz before the break.

Tidling equalized in the 2nd half through Niclas Fullkrug, but Yusuf Sari scored the winning goal from a penalty just 20 minutes before the end of the match.

For Bayindir, the international match against Germany offers valuable match training, not least because he may have to be in action for a few weeks in United’s new year when André Onana will play in the African Championship with Cameroon.

Jackson and Sharpe scored for Scotland

United duo Malachi Sharpe and Louis Jackson both scored for Scotland U19s in their European Championship qualifier against Andorra. Scotland won the match 3-1 and now top their group.

Aston Villa’s Rory Wilson put Scotland ahead ten minutes before the break, but after the break, Andorra’s Marcel Carrau equalized. Just over an hour had been played when Sharpe put Scotland ahead and just over a quarter of an hour before the end, Jackson secured the lead by scoring 3-1.

Scotland will face Serbia in their final group game next Tuesday.

WC group win for the U17 national team despite losing

The England U17 national team knew before today’s match against Brazil that they would win Group C as long as they didn’t lose by two goals or more.

It seemed difficult for a while Finley McAllister & co because they were behind 0-2, but reduction to 1-2 meant group victory.

McAllister started the match, but the 17-year-old was substituted at 0-2 when England made three substitutions.

England’s round of 16 in the championship will be played on Wednesday next week, and their opponents are likely to be Uzbekistan.

Wednesday 15 November

The U19 national team won 6-0

The injury situation means United can take advantage of it quickly Kobbie Mainoo forward, after he missed most of the autumn due to injury, and the 18-year-old could get valuable match practice during the national team period.

He is currently in Marbella with the England U19 team, and on Wednesday he played the final half hour of England’s 6-0 win over Romania. The score was 4-0 when he came on.

If anyone reacts to the fact that he started on the bench, it does not mean that he is not good enough: this is a question of an insignificant match in terms of results, and the U19 national team will play three matches during the national team’s period, and thus not everyone will start in all games. The next match is on Saturday against Japan.

United goalkeeper Elyh Harrison (17) declared as a substitute player who was not used in the match.

Otherwise, play Jack Kingdon all matches of the Scotland U19 national team when they visit Bulgaria on Wednesday morning. It ended 0-0, so Kingdon and the entire Scottish defense continued to fall behind.
