Three U-20 World Cup Quarter-Final Clashes Confirmed
The drama of the FIFA U-20 World Cup continues to unfold as four gripping Round of 16 matches have paved the way for three confirmed quarter-final matchups.
Colombia secured a confident 3-1 victory over South Africa, booking a high-stakes showdown with tournament dark horses Spain — the very side that ended Ukraine’s journey in the previous round. Meanwhile, tournament favourites Argentina sent a strong message by thrashing Nigeria 4-0 in a one-sided affair. Their next challenge? A quarter-final duel against a determined Mexico side. The winners of these two matches will go head-to-head in a mouth-watering semi-final clash.
The third confirmed quarter-final will see France take on Norway in what promises to be another closely contested battle. Both teams were pushed to the limit in their Round of 16 ties. France edged past a resilient Japan after extra time, while Norway needed a late winner in additional minutes to eliminate Paraguay.
