Vale Park, Port Vale FC
10 May 2005
The England U18s drew 0-0 with Norway after a disappointing 0-0 draw at
Port ValeThe England under 18s have only played once this season before the friendly V Norway at
Vale ParkThe FA Website reported that both James Walker and Kyel Reid had chances in a tight first-half in which England had the better possession.
However their best efforts were not good enough to beat the Norway goalkeeper and in the second half a similar pattern emerged.
Southampton winger Nathan Dyer was impressive and he laid on decent chances for Walker and Arsenal's Kerrea Gilbert.
Again though, the little bit of quality in the final third was missing and England had to make to with a goalless draw"
