Under 17
World Cup, semi-final
Spain 3 -
Argentina 2 (aet)
Another great comeback, this
time against Argentina, took Spain through to the final of the
youth World Cup. The youngsters found themselves two down early on, the first a
controversial goal from Biglia after the ball appeared to have gone out of play
in the build up, and the second a header by Garay following a corner. Arsenal's
new signing Cesc pulled one back though at the start of the second half, and
Jurado levelled the scores a few minutes later. Argentina were left with ten
men after Cardoso was sent off, but it appeared that they would hold on to the
penalty shoot out as the clock ran down and Ruz was also sent off for Spain.
But with two minutes to go Cesc hit the winning golden goal to take his side
through to a final with Brazil on Saturday afternoon. (27.08.03)
