The round of 16 of the U-20 World Cup has already started. The first match played by the United States team was against its New Zealand counterpart, with the victory of the American team (4-0), to become the first player to qualify for the quarter-finals.
For its part, Argentina will face Nigeria (4:00 pm) in the knockout round at San Juan del Bicentenario. The Albiceleste team want to lift the World Cup title again in the category they haven’t managed since 2007.
On the other hand, Brazil will meet Tunisia at Diego Armando Maradona Stadium (12:30), seeking to close its path to the next stage of the international competition. Canarinha is the second highest FIFA tournament winner with a total of 5 tournaments.
In addition, the Colombian team will try to eliminate Slovakia (12:30) to continue advancing in the competition. The coffee growers arrive as the first team in Group C, in contrast to the Europeans who are ranked as one of the best third parties.
As Wednesday closes, England will clash with Italy (4:00pm) in a duel that promises to be a rendezvous match. The English have only been World Cup champions once and now, in Argentina, they will be seeking their second title.
The Italians, for their part, want to be crowned world champions for the first time, so eliminating their European counterpart will be a priority.
