Germany, with a penalty goal from Paris Brunner in the 63rd minute, reached the semi-finals of the U17 World Cup in Indonesia and got rid of Spain, which dominated the first half but faded in the second without creating any great chances.
The Spanish team came out to try to control the game with long possessions, constant support in the center of the field and elaborate plays in search of Daniel Yáñez and Marc Guiu, who was able to score in the 21st minute with a shot that was saved in the small area. Silva Moreira.
That was the first of the three clear chances that Spain had in the first half. The other two were a shot by Héctor Fort with the inside that went just past the top corner and the second was an action by Peio Huestamendia that was unable to finish with his left foot when he was alone against Max Schmitt.
In the second half the forces were equalized and Germany improved its offensive performance on the pitch, advancing its lines and beginning to surround Spain’s area.
In search of a new breath, José Lana revolutionized the team fifteen minutes into the second half with a triple change, bringing on Paulo Iago, Igor Oyono and Pablo López and removing Huestamendia, Juan Hernández and Daniel Yañez.
