European champions Spain will enter their final group match against DPR Korea as the firm favourites, looking to secure a Round of 16 berth in the FIFA U-17 World Cup
European champions Spain will enter their final group match against DPR Korea as the firm favourites, looking to secure a Round of 16 berth in the FIFA U-17 World Cup here today. Spain are placed second in Group D behind leader Brazil, to whom they lost 1-2 in their tournament opener. They bounced back from that reverse in style and notched up a 4-0 victory over Niger in their second game. Now, they are raring to go as they lock horns with the bottom-placed North Koreans, who have lost both their matches to Niger and Brazil.
