JAKARTA The England U-17 national team won a landslide victory 10-0 over Kaledonia Baru on the first matchday of Group C of the 2023 U-17 World Cup, Saturday, November 11, 2023. England closed the first round with a four-goal advantage at the Jakarta International Stadium, Jakarta, evening WIB.

The four goals in the first half started with Reiss Denny's previous penalty following goals from Justin Oboavwoduo, Tyler Dibling, and Josh-Kofi Acheampong.

Ryan Garry's team then got the advantage of winning the number of players when the second half had only been running for one minute. This is after the player Kaledonia Nolhann Alebate received a red card and had to leave the field.

The goal party for England then continued five minutes later. The fifth goal of the Young Lion was netted by Sam Amo-Ameyaw.

Six minutes later, Kaledonia's goal conceded again. This time it was Oboavwoduo's turn to score his second goal in this match.

Three more England goals after that were scored by Ethan Nwaneri (78'), Harrison Murray (85'), and Finley McAllister (90+1'). Meanwhile, another goal was the suicide of Kaledonia player Wadria Hanye (80').
