U17's World Cup Mexico

Duksch very close again.

lol stupid back heel, very un-german

Haha.....Duksch loses possession stupidly and England take advantage of it and score! 3-2!

I could watch more of this - does a draw go to extra time?

HOPE

In fairness to Walcott, he was also excellent at this level.

The surprise to me was that he went to Arsenal and seemed to become more reliant on his speed than footballing ability. The last club in England you would have expected that from. Walcott is still only 21, he has potential to develop his all-round game. Bit overly criticised on these boards if you ask me

goal made by athlete Sterling

We want penalties!

Sterling looks better technically than Walcott fo sho.

Sadly he's bound to be a Chav c**t who will think he's made it when he inevitably breaks into the Liverpool senior squad, as so many England youngsters appear to do

This match is very similar to the Brazil - Japan match yesterday indeed. Stupid way to let England come back into the game.

Germans feigning injury to waste time

Okay I just saw the replay. Perhaps not

Shit, Can looks injured. Would be a big loss for the semis, provided Germany actually go through.

Where is Otto to waffle on about old school German character being diluted by homosexuals and Foreigners and homosexual foreigners.

Ref calls time early, even though he booked a Germ for timewasting in injury time

Shame. Pens would've been fun.

3-2 FT

Stupid way to let the English back in the game, should have finished them off much earlier. Credit to England for never giving up and trying. We'll need to improve considerably to win the semis, that's for sure.

Germans reaping the benefit of breaking European employment law - congrats

Duksch was the cucumber of the match as we say in German. First he wasted a huge, huge chance to make it 4-0 and finish the match, then he gave a direct assist for the second English goal. Incredible.

Should be flogged off to Siberia for that alone.

At least this was the first proper test for the nerves of the kids, the first real pressure situation.

Well, Germany may well win this game on paper, but I'm claiming a moral victory to England:

A country with half the population and a much criticised youth policy were far from overawed by a German team displaying the much vaunted products of a well publicised 10year youth shake up, whose policy of uptake appears to be not only open to the residents of Europes second largest country, but also anyone who holidays there and fancies handing in their passport.

Oh, and the English blatantly all played with broken toes swell.

Well done lion cubs

Well, you still have the U17 Euros to celebrate.

of last year.

And the more dignified response: congrats Kroos, Blut, Eff. The banter is always good, enjoy the rest of Germany's progression chaps

Who have you got in the semis?

Mexico, the hosts, or France.

We'll lose to both if the team doesn't learn from this. France in particular looks very mature and composed.

Yeah France look extremely good. They have that kid they're calling the new Zidane. Mostly cos he's also Algerian, but he does have some glorious tecchers.

Mexico I know less about.

Should be good. Keep us posted utterly blutterly old pear

Mexico would probably be the easier side. Watched them against Holland. The were below par to them.
They weren´t paticulary well against Panama, too.

Didn´t see much of France. But beating Ivory coast is an achievement. They were shit at the Euros, though.

France are a lot better in this tournament than they were in the Euros. I agree that Mexico would likely suit us more.

To win the tournament, the team has to improve though, simply can't afford this kind of sloppiness.

Mexico take the lead after 14 minutes.

France equalise just three minutes later. 1-1!

Mexico take the lead again in the 50'. Great goal btw., one of the tournaments best.
