Not familiar with Curtis Jones...yet
Him and Masterson look very promising coming out of the next crop. Along with Tagseth and Grabara that group has some really nice talents worth watching for this tournament (as far as Liverpool prospects go...along with the obvious Brewster and Woodburn).
The games are being streamed for free on youtube btw.

Flamengo has denied Vinicius Jr of attending the u17 World Cup. LOL. I was kinda curious to see him going against other u17 standouts like Sancho and Foden. Worst part is that Brazil won't be able to call up a replacement.
Here is Brazil squad for the WC
Goalkeepers
Gabriel Brazão - Cruzeiro
Lucas Alexandre - Vasco da Gama
Yuri Sena - Vitória
Defenders
Wesley - Flamengo
Luan Cândido - Palmeiras
Weverson - São Paulo
Lucas Halter - Atlético Paranaense
Matheus Stockl - Atlético Mineiro
Rodrigo Guth - Atalanta (Italy)
Vitor Eduardo - Palmeiras
Midfielders
Alan de Souza - Palmeiras
Marcos Antônio - Atlético Paranaense
Rodrigo Nestor - São Paulo
Victor Bobsin - Grêmio
Victor Yan - Santos
Vitinho - Corinthians
Forwards
Brenner - São Paulo
Lincoln - Flamengo
Paulinho - Vasco da Gama
Yuri Alberto - Santos
Brazil should appeal that to FIFA. No way is Flamengo allowed to do that. They released him by allowing him to be on the initial squad list.
Iran beating Germany 3-0 in the U17 World Cup. Let's go Iran.
So is Vinicius Jr. really not playing?
Pretty dumb that Dortmund are only letting Sancho play in the group stage. They're not even using him for the first team. He might be the best player at the tournament.
He was on the bench the last match before leaving for the tournament. I thought he would've started to receive some more playing time. Bad time to leave for him. This week he very well could've got some minutes had he not went to this tournament.
Yep, exactly what I wrote earlier. Best attacking record in the competition, best scorer too (Gouiri), but lack of true good teams in the first stage hurt them.Spain knocks France out with a go-ahead penalty kick goal in the 89min by Abel Ruiz (Barcelona). France was the way better team in the first half, couldn't score more than 1 goal after a nice finish by Pintor (Stade Brest 29) then Spain tied the game late in their only scoring chance in the 1st half, Juan Miranda (Barcelona) header. Second half was better for Spain. Adli (PSG) looks like a Rabiot copycat, even the hairdo is similar.
