U20 World Cup: All Knockout Stage Pairs
The group stage of the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Chile wrapped up last night, and we now have the full lineup for the Round of 16. Among the standout fixtures is a high-stakes clash between Ukraine and Spain.
Ukraine face a tough test against a Spain U20 side that has had a turbulent tournament so far. Despite finishing only third in their group, Spain pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the tournament by knocking out Brazil. They advanced to the knockouts as the lowest-ranked of the best third-placed teams — barely scraping through, but still dangerous.
The winner of Ukraine vs Spain will go on to face either Colombia or South Africa in the quarter-finals. Both Round of 16 matches are set to be played tomorrow.
