The omen of beginning a tournament with an own goal continued for Brazil in this FIFAâu00c2u0080u00c2u0088U-17 World Cup too. Marcelo did so in the 2014 World Cup against Croatia and Brazil had to bow out to the eventual champions Germany in the semi-final 1-7. Three years later, Wesley scored an own goal versus Spain in Kochi and the journey for the Paulinhos and Lincolns ended in the Last-4 again, losing 1-3 to England. Rhian Brewster completed his second and back-to-back hat-trick to earn a first final in the U-17 World Cup for England.
