Everton youngster Jonjoe Kenny has earned a sizeable amount of praise for his performance for the England under-20’s this afternoon.

England took on South Korea at the under-20 World Cup, and Kenny was one of the stand out players on display.

The Everton right-back was tireless throughout the match, which the Three Lions won 1-0.

Kenny set up England’s only goal of the game, cutting the ball back for his Everton teammate Kieran Dowell to poke home.

And he was a constant menace throughout the contest, with England continuously looking to use him as an outlet ball down the right flank.

Kenny was also very solid defensively, with one goal line clearance particularly notable.

And Everton fans have suggested that Kenny could give Seamus Coleman some serious competition at Goodison Park next season.
