Norway striker Joshua King doubts the team spirit of England's under-21s after defeating the Young Lions at the U21 Euro 2013.

Blackburn Rovers' Norwegian striker Joshua King has said that his side's team spirit was the key to victory over England at the U21 Euro 2013 yesterday.

Norway, who had lost their last five matched against the Young Lions, comfortably saw off Stuart Pearce's men 3-1, eliminating them from the tournament in the process.

King, 21, believes that his side's mentality is worth more than the talent of England.

"Everyone is together, it is like a big family," he told Press Association Sport. "The team spirit in this team is unbelievable.

"I don't really pay attention to that side of England. Obviously I know a few of their players but it is not me to judge their team spirit.

"Our lads know all the players in England. They know players cost this and this, so many millions, and some of our players are playing in the Norwegian lower leagues and are just underrated."

Norway meet Italy in their final match on Tuesday to decide who will progress as group winners.
