England U-20
CharacterEngland U-20 is the youth national squad that gathers the country's most promising footballers below twenty years old. Slotted into Group A of the U-20 World Cup within the Blue Lock manga, the side chases the tournament against heavyweight rivals, though its early campaign quickly runs into stronger opposition.
Overview
England U-20 represents the nation at the international youth level, fielding footballers who have yet to reach the age of twenty. The team appears in the Blue Lock story as one of the sides drawn into Group A of the global under-twenty championship.
Role
Through the group phase, England's young lineup posts a mixed record. It falls to France by a single goal in a tight 1 to 2 result, then answers with a commanding 5 to 1 rout of Nigeria before a further fixture against Japan looms. A piece of trivia notes that, unlike the manga, the real England squad never took part in the Poland edition of the youth tournament.
