So far, the final team of this World Youth Championship has been born, and Italy has reached the final after beating South Korea 2-1, and will compete with Uruguay for the championship. In this World Youth Championship, Italy and Uruguay have only lost one game so far, and whoever loses the second game will not be able to win the championship.
The match between Italy and South Korea can be described as thrilling ups and downs, both teams have a chance to qualify, but the Italian team is more lucky, they seized their own opportunity, and finally killed their opponents, avenging the elimination of the World Cup that year.
In the first half, although the Italian team had an absolute advantage, they could not get the advantage in the score, and the two teams finally scored one goal each, and the two sides played 1-1.
In the second half, the Italian team continued to attack wildly, and their efforts finally bore fruit in the final moments. With Pafonti's free-kick, Italy beat South Korea 2-1 and successfully advanced to the World Youth Championship.
It is worth mentioning that there was also a big controversy in this game, when the game was played in the 58th minute, the Italian team took a corner kick, and then they scored with a close-range header, and they were about to break the goal, but they were cleared by the South Korean goalkeeper on the goal line.
However, judging from the slow motion, the header of this attacking Italian team is suspected to have crossed the goal line. Although the Italian players thought that the goal should be effective, the referee did not see it that way, and he did not blow the penalty in the end.
Fortunately, this controversy did not affect the fate of the Italian team, and they relied on their own efforts to finally kill the South Korean team. If the Italian team is eliminated, this will undoubtedly become the focus of the post-match, and then the grudge between the Italian team and the South Korean team will be even more inextricable.
After the match, Italian players gathered in a circle on the field to celebrate the team's qualification for the final. Next, they will compete with Uruguay for the title. Italy reached the final for the first time in the history of the World Youth Championship, and Uruguay has not won the championship, and whoever wins the championship will make history.
As for the South Korean team, they did not have the opportunity to reach the final of the World Youth Championship for two consecutive years after losing this match. However, although it was eliminated by the Italian team, the South Korean team's performance in this game was good enough, and the South Korean team almost dragged the game into extra time when the strength was not as good as the opponent. If the two sides really can't tell the winner in 90 minutes, in extra time, South Korea's physical superiority may help them create miracles.
In this World Youth Championship, the South Korean team is the best team in Asia, and in this competition, the Korean team is indeed the ceiling of Asian teams. Although they have not won the championship so far, as long as they continue to work hard, the Korean team has hope!
