South American U17: Argentina lost to Brazil, but qualified for the World Cup

In the last date of the South American U17, the Argentine National Team commanded by Diego Placente lost 3 – 2 against Brazil and could not keep the trophy. Likewise, several dates ago they achieved the objective, which was to qualify for the next world championship of the category that will take place in November. In the first half, the Brazilians started winning with goals from Riquelme and Filipi, but at the end of the first half and the beginning of the second, Juan Valentín Giménez and Claudio Echeverri appeared to tie it. Finally, Da Mata converted the third for Brazil and sentenced the victory. We must highlight the participation of the young Argentines, since they maintained the undefeated throughout the competition, in which they won five and drew two games, and then, suffer two defeats in last matches, the first against Ecuador, the local team, and the other against the verdeamarela.Photo: Twitter @ArgentinaIn this way, the team will begin with its preparation for the World Cup competition that does not yet have a venue, since, at first, it was going to be held in Peru, but after FIFA found that the country was not going to be able to face the development of the competition, it decided that it would be done elsewhere.
