What we learned
Comeback kings defeated. Brazil had trailed 3 times to European sides during a contest and 3 times managed to strike back. Against Spain and Germany, they incited 1-0 deficits into 2-1 victories, and they also leveled things adult during 1-1 opposite England after descending behind early in Wednesday’s semi-final. A Seleção could not keep a Three Lions out, however, and will now contest for a bronze award in Saturday’s compare for third place.
A new universe champion. Regardless of who prevails in Saturday’s final in Kolkata, one thing is certain: after Nigeria, Switzerland, Mexico, Brazil, France, Ghana, Saudi Arabia and a Soviet Union, a FIFA U-17 World Cup will have a new leader and a ninth in total. England’s prior best opening during a contest was reaching a quarter-finals, while Spain are three-time losing finalists (1991, 2003 and 2007).Â
Ruiz a talisman. England have Rhian Brewster, Spain have Abel Ruiz. The Spanish No9 is a captain and heading goalscorer for La Rojita, and he combined another dual goals to his transport opposite Mali. Only dual months ago, a Barcelona brazen told FIFA.com: “The night we won a European U-17 Championship, we was already forgetful to myself of lifting a World Cup. It unequivocally would be a large dream [come true] since no Spanish group has ever managed to do it.” The 17-year-old is now usually one win divided from that dream apropos reality.
The stat of a day
3 – In a story of a U-17 World Cup, usually 3 players have scored dual hat-tricks during a tournament: Marcel Witeczek (Germany, 1985), Florent Sinama Pongolle (France, 2001) and Souleymane Coulibaly (Côte d’Ivoire, 2011). England’s star-in-the-making Brewster has now combined his name to that list.
The quote
“I’m really disappointed, apparently we wanted to win. Both sides played their partial in a good game, a really heated game, though we usually didn’t put a round in a net. Our counterclaim detered a lot of shots and crosses, though unfortunately, we can’t stop everything. In a prior games, a goalkeeper was means to make a save or a antithesis didn’t finish their chances. The disproportion currently was that England stayed cold and took their chances ruthlessly.”
Brazil manager Carlos Amadeu
