England U16s v Spain International U16 Friendly
3pm, Saturday 28 April 2007 Wembley Stadium
Kenny Swain has selected the 18 young Lions who will grace the hallowed turf at the new Wembley Stadium on April 28.
Swain's Under-16s will play Spain at the new home of English football - a game which will conclude a successful year in which they won the Victory Shield.
Seventeen of the squad took part in the recent Montaigu Tournament, where England lost to Germany in the Final. Earlier the Lions had beaten the Republic of Ireland and France although could only draw with the USA.
The one new face for the Spain game is Liverpool's Sean Highdale, who helped England win the Victory Shield in December.
Swain said: "I'm really looking forward to what will be a fantastic tribute to youth football. It's a marvellous opportunity for any young player to play at one of the best stadiums in the world."
Tickets are priced at £10 for adults and £5 concessions. There is a limit of 4 tickets per person.
