‘A shandy or two' – No wild celebrations for England's U21 heroes as boss Carsley reveals they have 3.30am flight home
JONATHAN ROWE was England's hero as they sealed back-to-back Under-21s Euros glory. But the Marseille supersub and his team-mates will NOT be partying into the night — as they had to go straight to the AIRPORT. 2 England retained their U21 European Championship title with a 3-2 victory over Germany Credit: AFP 2 Super-sub Jonathan Rowe won it for England with an early goal in extra-time Rowe headed home Tyler Morton's cross to seal an extra-time triumph over Germany in front of senior Three Lions chief Boss But as fans watching on at home toasted another thrilling success — the players will be limited to "a shandy or two". That's after Carsley revealed the squad were booked onto a flight back to Birmingham just a few hours after lifting the trophy. Asked how his side planned to celebrate, Carsley said: "We go back to the hotel. "We have a couple of hours and then fly back into Birmingham at 3.30. "It's a quick turnaround. The players will be on holiday tomorrow. Their time is very important to them. But it's important that they have a shandy or two tonight." CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS Most read in Football He added: "I'm really proud of the players. The commitment they've shown for the last 28 days, all the instruction we've tried to put into them so quickly, they've taken it on board and they've got so much belief. "I'm so happy for them. To be European champions for the second time is a great achievement and the challenge now is to do it again in two years. England 3 Germany 2- Young Lions retain Euro U21s crown in THRILLER as supersub Jonathan Rowe wins it in extra-time "Any setback we've had, the players have just got together. I said at the start of the tournament, the longer we can stay in, the better we play. "I didn't think we played great tonight. I thought we probably sat a little bit too deep and didn't have as much control as I would've wanted, but I probably won't remember that in a couple of days." Meanwhile, hero of the hour Rowe, who was subbed on at full-time of normal time, praised the team for rallying together. The striker said: "I was not starting but I knew that at some point all of us on the bench would have to come on and make a difference and help the team to push us over the line. "I'm so happy we managed to do that in front of some important people. The job's finally finished and we can all celebrate."

Police assessing videos of Kneecap and Bob Vylan's Glastonbury performances
Police are assessing videos of comments made by acts Bob Vylan and Kneecap at Glastonbury to decide whether any offences may have been committed. Rapper Bobby Vylan, of rap punk duo Bob Vylan, led crowds on the festival's West Holts Stage in chants of: 'Free, free Palestine' and: 'Death, death to the IDF', before a member of Irish rap trio Kneecap suggested fans 'start a riot' outside his bandmate's upcoming court appearance. Bob Vylan also displayed pro-Palestinian images (Yui Mok/PA) In a post on social media, Avon and Somerset Police said: 'We are aware of the comments made by acts on the West Holts Stage at Glastonbury Festival this afternoon. 'Video evidence will be assessed by officers to determine whether any offences may have been committed that would require a criminal investigation.' Bob Vylan performing on the West Holts Stage (Ben Birchall/PA) Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has spoken to the BBC director general about Bob Vylan's performance, a Government spokesperson said. They added: 'We strongly condemn the threatening comments made by Bob Vylan at Glastonbury. 'The Culture Secretary has spoken to the BBC Director General to seek an urgent explanation about what due diligence it carried out ahead of the Bob Vylan performance, and welcomes the decision not to re-broadcast it on BBC iPlayer.' There was a display of pro-Palestinian flags and t-shirts during Kneecap's set (Yui Mok/PA) A BBC spokesperson said: 'Some of the comments made during Bob Vylan's set were deeply offensive. During this live stream on iPlayer, which reflected what was happening on stage, a warning was issued on screen about the very strong and discriminatory language. We have no plans to make the performance available on demand.' Kneecap, who hail from Belfast, have been in the headlines after member Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged with a terror offence. In reference to his bandmate's upcoming court date, Naoise O Caireallain, who performs under the name Moglai Bap, said they would 'start a riot outside the courts', before clarifying: 'No riots just love and support, and support for Palestine.' During the performance Caireallain said: 'The Prime Minister of your country, not mine, said he didn't want us to play, so f*** Keir Starmer.' He also said a 'big thank you to the Eavis family' and said 'they stood strong' amid calls for the organisers to drop them from the line-up. O hAnnaidh, 27, wore a keffiyeh during the set, while member JJ O Dochartaigh, who performs under the name DJ Provai, wore his signature tri-coloured balaclava as well as a T-shirt that said: 'We are all Palestine Action', in reference to the soon-to-be banned campaign group. News broadcasts criticising the hip hop trio played from the sound system before they walked onto the stage were booed by the Glastonbury Festival audience. The trio opened with the song Better Way To Live from their 2024 album Fine Art and also performed tracks including Get Your Brits Out and Hood. Access to the area around the West Holts Stage was closed around 45 minutes before their performance after groups of fans arrived to form a sea of Irish and Palestinian flags. A Bob Vylan member crowd-surfs surrounded by Palestinian flags (Yui Mok/PA) Earlier on Saturday, the BBC confirmed they would not be live-streaming the set but said the performance is likely to be made available on-demand later. O hAnnaidh was charged with allegedly displaying a flag in support of proscribed terrorist organisation Hezbollah, while saying 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' at a gig in November last year. On June 18, the rapper was cheered by hundreds of supporters as he arrived with bandmates O Caireallain and O Dochartaigh at Westminster Magistrates' Court in Free Mo Chara T-shirts. He was released on unconditional bail until the next hearing at the same court on August 20.
