International Round-Up: 5th & 6th October

Here's your international round-up from the past two days, featuring some of Everton's younger players.

Shkodran Mustafi won his third cap for Germany U20s against Italy on Wednesday night, and the central defender even managed to score his first goal at that age level as the Germans ran out 3-2 winners.

Apostolos Vellios started for Greece U21s in their Euro 2013 Qualifier against San Marino in Athens. The Everton forward was taken off after 58 minutes with a slight ankle injury but should recover very quickly. The Greeks won the game 2-0 thanks to a Charis Mavrias brace.

Jack Rodwell played ninety minutes for England U21s in their match against Iceland and club-mate Ross Barkley came off the bench to play the last quarter of an hour. England won 0-3 thanks to a hat-trick from Arsenal's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
