Adam Armstrong and Freddie Woodman both started in England under-17s' final match of the FA International Tournament but the Young Lions were beaten by Italy on Sunday.
John Peacock's side fell behind to an early Ivan Francesco De Santis goal before Ryan Ledson equalised.
But Valerio Trani won the game in the 50th minute - by which time Woodman had been replaced between the sticks by Ryan Huddart.
Armstrong played the whole match but failed to add to his goal against Turkey on Friday.
Meanwhile, Daniel Baralser was involved for Turkey as they beat eventual tournament winners Portugal 2-0.
