York City goalkeeper Russ Howarth was beaten only by his own team-mate last night as England Under-18s lost 1-0 to their counterparts from Switzerland.
Everton youngster Peter Clarke was accredited with scoring the only goal of the game in his own net, deflecting a shot by Grasshoppers teenager Baumann past Howarth in the 30th minute.
In front of a crowd of 3,500 at the Grenchen Stadium in Zurich, the City youngster started the game, adding to his collection of England Youth caps, having made his international debut at under-16s level three seasons ago.
