England Under-21 manager Gareth Southgate singled out Tottenham midfielder Tom Carroll for praise after the young Three Lions' 1-1 draw with Finland last night.

Carroll started in a central midfield three alongside Nathaniel Chalobah and James Ward-Prowse.

After the game Southgate said: "I thought James Ward-Prowse and Tom Carroll were terrific.

"Even when we were down to 10 men, they kept probing and opening them up and did a disciplined job defensively when we needed that cover."

Carroll is currently on loan at Queens Park Rangers but is highly rated at White Hart Lane where he is expected to have a big future.

Another Spurs youngster Harry Kane also impressed, coming off the bench in the second half.
