Football, it writes beautiful stories. The U17 World Cup in Indonesia will provide us with further proof of this on Wednesday. In the eighth finals in Jakarta, England, which started the tournament as one of the favorites, will face Uzbekistan. And the brave Uzbeks, who reached the knockout round as one of the best teams in third place in the group, are proving, against expectations, to be a real tough nut for the brilliant talents from the motherland of football.
A goal from a free kick brings England home
After four minutes, Uzbekistan takes the lead thanks to a goal by attacker Amirbek Saidov (17). Manchester City gem Joel Ndala (17), who only recently played against the Young Boys in the UEFA Youth League, equalizes the match. But the English can no longer recover from the second Uzbek goal.
Captain Lazizbek Mirzaev (17), who already played in the second highest division of Uzbekistan, shoots a beautiful free kick into the high corner in the second half. The furious running of the English no longer yields anything. Ultimately, the Uzbeks knocked the “Young Lions” out of the tournament 2-1 and sensationally advanced to the quarter-finals. The next top European country, France, is now waiting there.
But if you beat a team full of the best academy players from City, Chelsea or Arsenal, there’s no need to hide from the French talent. (sbe)
