Brazil vs England U-17

And then the match kicked off.

England 1 (Brewster 10′) – 0 Brazil

Absolutely brilliant from England!  They control their possession so well in the final third, linking passes around and showing excellent movement before the ball was chipped over the top of a crowded box into Brewster’s path.

England pass for goal

His first shot is straight at the keeper and saved… the second is buried! England lead Brazil!

England don’t defend this particularly well but Paulinho’s smart one-two was the key to unlock the door. He gets the pass back, shoots and the goalkeeper parries. It falls to Wesley, who is a full-back, and he beats Latibeaudiere to the ball to put it into the bottom corner.

England 2 (Brewster 39′) – 1 Brazil

It’s the new Michael Owen! The ball is worked well by England out to the right, the cross comes across the box and Brewster is in the right place at the right time. Excellent positional awareness and he gets the finish right too, even if he nearly shanks it wide.

England leads!

England 3 (Brewster 77′) – 1 Brazil

Brewster is the hero of the day. But the skill and clever play of Phil Foden makes this one. Brewster’s movement and anticipation off the ball is excellent and he’s deserved his hat-trick but Foden’s beautiful little Cruyffish turn under pressure has turned a fairly harmless move into a goal. He lays it wide, the cross comes in and Brewster smashes in at the back post.

 

ENGLAND ARE IN THE WORLD CUP (under 17) FINAL!!!!!
