Harvey Elliott makes offensive hand gesture just seconds after England U21s' European triumph over Germany
Harvey Elliott let out his frustrations by flashing two fingers at someone just seconds after England's Under-21 Euros triumph against Germany.
Elliot opened the scoring after five minutes in what turned out to be a ping-pong game in Bratislava, which saw the Three Lions blow a two-goal lead, forcing extra-time.
But Germany could not continue their momentum in the last half hour, and it was Jonathan Rowe - who is currently on loan at Marseille from Norwich - who snatched a winner to make it 3-2 in the 92nd minute.
England held on to claim their second consecutive U21 Euro title, yet Elliott's immediate reaction revealed frustration rather than jubilation.
It is unclear who the Liverpool star's gesticulations were aimed towards.

Sheffield Wednesday players ask EFL to send them money for their wages with Owls facing mass exodus
SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY'S players will ask the EFL to send them money for their wages. The squad are due to be paid tomorrow but many will go without a salary for the second month running. 1 That opens the door for some to leave — but those who stay are planning talks with the PFA. They want the EFL to divert the monthly 'TV money' to them and not owner Dejphon Chansiri. The Owls supremo is counting on the EFL funds to pay the bills — unless he gets a £5million loan from a takeover bidder or compensation for boss Danny Rohl. Wednesday face a walkout by backroom staff next week. Rohl's future is already in doubt but some of his team may move on after contracts run out. Failure to pay wages for the second month in a row would also lead to charges and points penalties. The club have already been hit with transfer restrictions for the next three windows. Wednesday are currently banned from completing signings or loans that involve a fee until 2027. And they currently cannot sign any players, even free transfers, until the outstanding wages have been paid. Wednesday are set to appeal the ruling. Chansiri has been in charge at Hillsborough for the last ten years. Meanwhile, Rohl has been linked with a switch to Leicester after they axed Ruud van Nistelrooy two days ago following their relegation to the Championship.

Crystal Palace or Liverpool? Inside Guehi's intriguing summer
Marc Guehi officially enters the final 12 months of his Crystal Palace contract on Tuesday and interest is not often a player of his standing, an England international, enters such a zone of you'd imagine, there are a number of teams keen on taking advantage of the there is one club who appear to be emerging as strong contenders for the Sport reported this month that Liverpool were among the teams interested in signing the there are various factors that will prove crucial in whether Liverpool take steps to formalise their what could make or break a deal that could become one of the most eye-catching of the summer transfer window. Delicacy of whether the price is right Palace's valuation of a player who can leave for nothing next summer will be Liverpool don't view Guehi's price as reasonable, don't be surprised to see them park their interest for 12 months and look to strike a free-transfer what represents a reasonable price? For a clue, we should look back to last year when Palace rejected multiple offers from Newcastle - the last of which was worth £ sense dictates the fee this summer will be lower give the looming contract expiry. But how much lower?There is no official word on what Palace would be prepared to accept for their got to balance it all against the prospect of having Guehi in the heart of their defence next season, and helping them remain competitive in the Premier have been indications, though, that the south London club may be willing accept a deal worth between £40m and £ issue, however, would be whether Liverpool see it that preferred profile for a centre-back in recent years has been younger than the Palace 2023 they were interested in Levi Colwill, who was 20 at the time. Last summer Liverpool were in for 18-year-old Leny Yoro, who eventually joined Manchester United. Prior to their interest in Guehi this summer they explored a move for Dean Huijsen, that in mind, Liverpool will be looking for what they judge as value to change their Liverpool set to sell centre-back Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen in a deal worth up to £35m, there is logic to the thought the Merseysiders could aim to break even in any formal bid for they'd be willing to pay a little extra over the money they recoup for Quansah - but not by a delicate Palace value Guehi at a price the Premier League champions deem fair, and Liverpool enter the discussions at a figure the Londoners don't perceive as 'low-balling', then that could open the door towards a successful and amicable that in mind, the first point of formal contact between clubs will likely be crucial towards whether Guehi ends up at Anfield. First-team opportunities and England are key Even if Palace and Liverpool can agree a fee for Guehi, there remains the question as to whether he plays regularly under Arne van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate formed a formidable central defensive duo last season as Slot's side lifted the Premier League with Konate's future unclear given he is also entering the final 12 months of his contract, the interest in Guehi adds a further layer of Guehi be interested in a move to Anfield? That's a no-brainer. Liverpool are one of the most exciting projects in European football. Their summer recruitment, including the £116m acquisition of Florian Wirtz, accentuates their the reality isn't a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer. For Guehi, the environment he steps into has to be imagine Guehi would like some level of indication of his role in Slot's plans before he gives serious consideration to a move is a regular for Palace and is their captain. With European football - pending Uefa's multi-club ownership investigation - to look forward to with Palace and the prospect of joining Liverpool or another leading European club on a free transfer next season, seeing out his contract has its so does joining Liverpool - provided he imagine Guehi's international aspirations will be a factor in his final decision, too, particularly in a World Cup time last year Guehi was emerging as one of England's stars of Euro 2024. Fast forward 12 months and there is less certainty regarding his international Gareth Southgate has left, Lee Carsley has returned to the Under-21s and Thomas Tuchel is in some ambiguity surrounding Guehi's place in Tuchel's set-up. With that in mind, you'd imagine a successful season at Liverpool - and his first steps in the Champions League - could help solidify his place in England's plans before the 2026 World if Guehi is left with the impression that he'll spend the season playing second fiddle to Van Dijk and Konate, then the transfer may hit an unsurmountable obstacle. Who could rival Liverpool's interest? If the price is right for all parties, and circumstances acceptable for Guehi, then a switch to Anfield has a good chance of gathering course, Palace - if there is no prospect of extending Guehi's current deal - will hope for interest from other clubs to maximise their selling are certainly other sides monitoring Guehi. Arsenal, for instance, have a concrete interest in the the Van Dijk-Konate conundrum would, arguably, be even more complex at Emirates Stadium with William Saliba and Gabriel in possession of the shirts in central have made initial enquiries into a potential move for Guehi but have now turned their attentions to Valencia centre-back Cristhian tried and failed to sign Guehi during the final hours of the January window and retain an who have a 20% sell-on clause for Guehi's new transfer, also explored the possibility of luring their former academy player back to Stamford Bridge in the there's Newcastle, who remain keen on trying to complete a deal that they so agonisingly failed to get over the line last when the champions come knocking it's hard to turn a blind eye - this year or next.
