MALE U20 

Portugal confirmed itself as World Champion in this category. It's the third time in a row that the same team wins the title. The Final against Spain has been, as usual, a great match, with the Portugal's goalkeeper Tiago Rodrigues as an absolute protagonist. Rodrigues performed an incredible number of saves during the match, particularly during the first time. Spanish players tried to score in any way, uselessly.

Portugal went ahead at the end of the first half thank to a penalty transformed by Gonçalo Nunes. Some minutes before, Bigas failed a penalty for Spain and, at the beginning of the second half, Joseph did the same, wasting a good opportunity to draw. In the last minute of the match, the Spanish coach Sergi Macia substituted his goalkeeper with the fifth player, but after the last attempt, Portugal recovered the ball and scored the 2-0 with Gonçalo Pereira.

In the Final for the 3rd place, Italy prevailed over Argentina 6-5 at the end of an amazing game where Argentina score first, Italy recovered and went ahead 4-1, then the south Americans tried to come back back couldn't reach the draw.
