The U20 World Cup group stage continued to unfold fiercely, with Japan beating Senegal 1-0, Italy beating Brazil 3-2, Colombia beating Israel 2-1 and Nigeria beating Dominica 2-1. In the opening period, Japan took the lead in the attack, with Fukui Taichi assisting Matsuki Kuosei's goal to lead the way. Senegal also fought back, but Sambadiallo's goal was blown offside. Neither side had a great chance in the second half, and Japan opened the group stage with a 1-0 victory over Senegal.
In the match between Italy and Brazil, Matteo Prati and Pafonti scored goals to give Italy the lead. At half-time, Italy had a three-goal advantage. Back in the second half, Brazil's attack improved slightly, with Marcos Leonardo pulling two goals back with a snatch and header. But in the end, Savio's cross assisted by Marcos Leonardo's header failed to save Brazil's Under-20 defeat.
Colombia pulled one back on two penalties in the match between Colombia and Israel, which eventually won 2-1 against Israel. Nigeria reversed Dominica from behind, winning 2-1.
These matches showed the strength and fighting spirit of each team, and also brought a wonderful football feast to the audience. Looking forward to more surprises and wonders in the future!
