Spain leaves the World Cup with a maximum penalty

It’s over. Spain ended their U-17 World Cup adventure in great frustration. Pablo López’s tears were a cruel portrait of a team unable to process what had happened. Lana’s team bowed out of the championship because of a cursed moment. A dubious penalty from Héctor Fort to Brunner, which the Dortmund striker converted. The Barça full-back hit the recess but withdrew his foot as it brushed against the striker’s leg.

incidents

Match equivalent to the quarterfinals of the U-17 World Cup, played at the Jakarta International Stadium in Indonesia in front of 8,379 spectators

The piece ended as final, confirming once again that the one who makes the most suggestions does not always win.. Spain carried the weight of the game and played better because they implemented the game plan more precisely. A production from the Barça school: three midfielders from La Masia such as Prim, Junyent and Juan Hernández set the pace. Darvich, who barely showed his head the entire game, chased shadows.

Two other Barça players – Fort and Guiu – caused chaos in the German team, who soon withdrew to look for an isolated situation. The striker had the first big chance of the game with a typical move. Da Silva made a miraculous save when the goal had already been scored.

Fort gave Guiu a precise assist, but his shot was intercepted with an acrobatic move by the German full-back. His contribution was not limited to attacking the penalty area: Spain found in him a safe place to improve the game. In defense, Cubarsí was just another midfielder. The central defender showed a clinic against Germany.

Christian Wück’s team had difficulty developing their moves and Darvich looked like a satellite. The Blaugrana acted as a second striker and had one of the best opportunities before the break. His shot inside the penalty area came out very centered, too easy for Raúl Jiménez.

The game of the game

The second half started the same way as the first. With Spain dominating, they managed to create some danger, but they lacked the necessary assertiveness in the final meters. Guiu once again starred in one of Spain’s best plays: Leaving two rivals behind, he fired a low shot down his leg that the German goalkeeper had difficulty parrying.

And when Spain’s goal seemed closer, the decisive moment for Spain arrived. Héctor Fort’s penalty, which Brunner converted by deceiving the goalkeeper. A goal that discouraged the team, which gained in haste and lost in clairvoyance. Lana changed the bench with the use of Jago, López and Oyono, but without reaching the tie.

The coach desperately searched for the goal with the use of Igor, a central defender, as 9 but fGuiu was the one who came closest to equalizing with a header in the 91st minute. On a difficult day, Spain managed to say goodbye to the U-17 World Cup less than ten minutes after extra time.
