[Euro U17] Netherlands 1-2 Germany
Germany Under-17s won the UEFA European Under-17 Championship for the first time after defeating the Netherlands 2-1 through substitute Florian Trinks's extra-time free-kick at the Stadion Magdeburg.
The tournament hosts, who beat Italy 2-0 in the semi finals, had to come from behind but were deserved winners. Luc Castaignos had opened the scoring with an emphatic early strike, but Germany – who had beaten the Netherlands 2-0 in the group stage – were on level terms by half-time thanks to Lennart Thy's close-range header.
Germany poured forward after the break, but could not force a winner in normal time. However, with penalties looming, Trinks struck a magnificent free-kick into the top corner to hand Germany the title.
