Heaven scores first international goal
Ayden Heaven is enjoying a week to remember, during his time away with England.
The Manchester United youngster trained with Thomas Tuchel's senior squad, ahead of their important World Cup warm-up friendly against Uruguay, at Wembley tonight (Friday).
On the back of that valuable experience, he headed out to Rome for an Under-20s clash against Italy, and scored his first international goal.

ArticleAyden was given an opportunity to impress Thomas Tuchel at St George's Park.
Neil Ryan's side drew 3-3 in the Italian capital, and Heaven powered home a brilliant header to make it 3-0, appearing to land a little awkwardly but celebrating as he hobbled away.
The goal was assisted by Tom Watson, from a corner, and the Brighton & Hove Albion winger, currently on loan at promotion-chasing Millwall, scored the first two goals as the Three Lions took control.
However, the hosts stormed back to force a draw in an entertaining game.
Congratulations to Ayden, who has still to register his first competitive Reds goal, but did find the net against Hong Kong, China in the Asian tour at the end of last term.
Heaven came off the bench late on, to help United preserve a point in the away game at Bournemouth last time out in the Premier League, following the sending off of Harry Maguire.
Our no.5 is, consequently, suspended for the visit of Leeds United to Old Trafford on 13 April.
