The England U21s European Championship qualifier against Lithuania will be held at Colchester United's Weston Homes Communty Stadium. The match will complete their Group 9 qualifying fixtures and could prove vital to their hopes of reaching next summer's finals in Dernmark. The match will kick-off at 4pm on Tuesday September 7, avoiding a clash with the England senior team who take on Switzerland that evening. "We appreciate the kick-off time is difficult for some people, coming that little bit earlier in the day to avoid a clash with the seniors, but by the same token we hope that it might just help a few others to get to the game," said Stuart Pearce, the England U21 coach. "It will be a tough game, we know that for sure, and that's why we need as many people as we can to get across and support us." Tickets are available from Monday. They can be purchased from the club at their ticket offices, by calling 08454379089 or online at colutickets.com. Reduced rates of £5 for adults and £2 for concessions are available.
