Confirmed Lineups: Germany U21 vs. England U21

Here are the 22 players who will be on the Tehelné pole stadium pitch when the U21 final kicks off.

Antonio Di Salvo has to replace Max Rosenfelder with Tim Oermann after the Freiburg center-back faced another injury setback. Brajan Gruda, who scored Germany’s third goal in the semi-final, is back on the lineup to take Ansgar Knauff’s role.

Lee Carsley keeps his starting XI from the semi-final win over the Netherlands. Bayer Leverkusen-bound Jarell Quansah will face lots of players he’ll encounter in the Bundesliga next season. 

Germany beat England 2-1 in a rotated XI when the two teams met in the final game of the group stage. They will hope to win the championship for only the fourth time, but they were triumphant in two of the last four editions. Meanwhile, England aim for a back-to-back title.
