Serbia won it, that last pen by US player should be criminal offense,spec. that run before he took it.

England missed out on Carter-Vickers, that's for sure. Only 17 yet has been the MOM up to this point in the match.
Just looked up a recent interview with him and he definitely leaves the door open to a switch 'I would have to think long and hard about such a decision and I couldn't see myself playing for England'. Why would he have to think long and hard about it then? It will be interesting to see if England have a move for him.

Carter-Vickers (USA) and Veljkovic (Serbia): very possibly the future CB pairing for Spurs.

He was just unfortunate to be of an age group where England have extreme strength in depth at centre back. Joseph Gomez is already a regular at 17 in the championship at centre back which is extremely rare, and Taylor Moore has since broken in to the Lens team over in France.

They also have the likes of City's Adarabioyo,Chelsea's Clarke-Salter and Boro's Dael Fry who are all good talents.Tuanzebe is very highly rated at United but not capped as well.Not to mention the likes of Everton's Ryan Ledson.

Looks like Moore played well for Lens too.

You are telling me that all of those guys are better than Carter-Vickers? I'm sorry but I'm not buying it. This guy shut down both Zivkovic and Milinkovic yesterday in a U-20 WC quarterfinal. They may be great talents but to say that Carter-Vickers doesn't get a look over any of them is ridiculous.

The point is not about who's better than who which is very subjective at these levels but when you have that pool to choose from, it's normal for one or two of them to be undeservingly left out.If you do watch most of them you will understand what I mean.I personally like Carter-Vickers from what I've seen and I think he will make it at Spurs.

Senegal look like they know a big defeat is coming. Can see Brazil scoring a few more goals this half.

Brazil forward tried to play a one two with the ref in the box. Quick thinking.

When I said they would score a few more I was going to say 5-0 but didn't want to sound like a lunatic. I would be surprised if they don't hit the 5th in this last 10 minutes.

Serbia 2:1 in extra time,it could be even more if they can finish better. All in all good game to watch,Mali players lost their heads a bit in 2nd ET in moment,ref could show at least 5 yellows in one swoop.

A year or so, we / Serbia won Euro U-19 .. Now we are in the finals of World U - 20 ... and I bet in a few years our national team will stick suck, because only the players in favour of the FSS president will play and those who need to be sold so officials from clubs, league and national football organisation need to take their percentage ... -.-

Still great team, credits to youngsters for actually playing with their hearts, attacking football and Veljko Paunovic who is I would say material to lead our NT.

About to head off to the U20 final, hope if Perriera starts he can play to his potential, he has been very disappointing so far.

Yeah, I found that a bit over the top give the kid a break his goals got them there.
I could ignore everything else but there was a situation where Babic over hit pass by a mile for Saponjic and that 2nd voice dropped blame on the kid saying how his movement should i go long or short forced that wrong pass,amazing.
