Thomas Tuchel needed an extra midfielder for his training session at the national stadium and as England have a strong relationship with Spurs, regularly using their Hotspur Way training ground, they asked the north London club if they could provide an academy player to join in with the session.
Tottenham turned to 18-year-old Hall, who has enjoyed a strong development season for the U18s, and he made his way to Wembley for the evening training session.
As experiences go, this was a big one for the teenager as he worked alongside the likes of Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden and Cole Palmer as well as Spurs players Dominic Solanke and Djed Spence and England captain and Tottenham's record goalscorer Harry Kane.

It was another milestone in this current campaign for Hall, the son of former Crystal Palace and QPR defender and now agent Fitz Hall. The young midfielder has only played once at U21 level but was involved with the first team at the beginning of this year when he travelled to Germany after being selected to be on Spurs' bench in the Champions League victory at Frankfurt in January.
Hall signed a new long-term contract for Spurs in the same money. The teen has captained the north London club's U18s side for much of this season, scoring five goals in 15 league games from midfield. He has also got further European experience with five appearances in the UEFA Youth League.
Manchester United youngster Ayden Heaven was also called upon earlier in the week in a temporary step up from the England U20s.
