Bristol City loan star Abraham ‘over the moon’ with England double

Tammy Abraham was in a buoyant mood after he marked his full England U21 debut with a brace on Tuesday.

The 19-year-old striker scored either side of the break as the Young Lions hammered Bosnia-Herzegovina 5-0 in Euro2017 qualifying in Walsall.

The Chelsea striker, who is enjoying a stellar loan stint in the Championship with Bristol City, told BT Sport that he was thrilled with the result, while also posting his feelings after the double on Twitter.

“I'm over the moon to get two goals," he said.

“The boys deserved it today. Whatever team we put out is fantastic, we all want the same thing and want to achieve the best."
