England U20 manager: 'They have made history'

England's under 20 manager Paul Simpson pays tribute to his players following their World Cup final victory.

"One of my first questions to them was 'what do you want to achieve out of this season?' and they said to me 'we want to win the World Cup.'

"They have been so focused, so professional, so determined. They are just an unbelievable bunch of players. They've made history with what they've done - 51 years of waiting. It's just been incredible so I'm delighted, really pleased for the players," Simpson beamed.

A 1-0 win over Venezuela in Sunday's final in South Korea gave England their biggest international title since 1966.
