YOUNG Wanderers star Tope Obadeyi came off the bench for England in the European U19 Championships earlier tonight, but couldn't prevent them from slipping to a 2-0 defeat.

The young England side were beaten by a classy Czech Republic team, and were already 2-0 down by the time Obadeyi replaced Scott Sinclair in the 64th minute.

England now face Italy on Thursday knowing victory could be essential to their chances of progression for the knock-out stage.
