Under-17s draw in Youth Club World Cup opener | OneFootball

This Monday (31), Tricolor’s U-17 team made its debut in the Youth Club World Cup in Spain. In Villanueva de Córdoba, São Paulo drew 2-2 with GNK Dinamo Zagreb, with goals from Brenno and Robert.

São Paulo started better and opened the scoring in the fourth minute after Brenno won a penalty and converted it. In the eighth minute, the opponent equalized, but Tricolor quickly went back in front through Robert, who finished and scored in the 13th minute. Even with the lead, the São Paulo side coached by Alexandre Torrezan pressed high on the opponent’s buildup and showed attacking strength in the final third as they looked to extend the lead.

In the second half, the style of play continued, but the opponent managed to break the press and equalized in the 38th minute.

In the penalty shootout for the extra point, the São Paulo side was defeated 3-2.

The next match takes place this Wednesday (2), when Tricolor faces Sporting at 3 p.m. in Palma del Río, and the very next day they close out the first phase against Málaga, also at 3 p.m., in Cabra.
