Aston Villa striker Cameron Archer scores first England U21 goal

Aston Villa striker Cameron Archer scored a first goal for England U21s against Albania last night.

It has been a successful campaign for the 20-year-old striker, who scored four goals for Villa in the League Cup as well as making his Premier League debut, before being sent on loan to Preston in January.

His form for the Lancashire side saw Archer earn his first call-up for Lee Carsley's Young Lions, alongside Villa teammate Jacob Ramsey.

Archer struck in the 3-0 win against Albania, which sees England qualify for the U21 Euros.
