gavião Paragon - Andre the still probably need to see a little bit more of this just clean passing in the midfield so often when they go for these longer passes and swing position is given away this was inside just a little bit more belief and they're shorter passing skills of a moment this is Hamza Mohammed on the tack for Ghana and this is a free Anna Wu Silla free opens the lead for Ghana well you've got to say it was coming the pressure from the African nation is rewarded on the scoreboard and it's a whoo so a free the flying winger who showed a really cool head when it came to applying the finishing touch there Brazil are shocked Hamza Mohammed said in a motion nattramn allowing it pass his body it's a great finish by a free not the best defending you've ever seen from Brazil Andre found himself caught out he wasn't expecting it to come through a trap didn't think that was an intentional dummy for mattre but it worked perfectly for a free and it's Ghana who lead in this under-17 World Championship final real thrust from hamza mohammed sums up the attitude of this g'day and team this puts it up to brazil now we are about to find out just how good these young South Americans really are youth Brazil to win this final they are gonna have to come from behind to do so pieces of energy around the stadium Africans would be very pleased to see Brazil under pressure like this [Applause] okay enough time approaching that was the perfect time for gather to take the lead to zalem Ronaldinho more urgency now about Brazil suddenly found themselves chasing the game [Applause] Fernando and right challenge from Gannett from answer to briefly win it back gavião goes long his long balls have not been very effective for Brazil so far comfortably dealt with by the Canadian back for [Applause] Zach interested off of faragon and the throw-in will be to the team in front together it's on the throw for Brazil and coach Lamont Carlos says our is up Alfie's been she's bellowing the instructions to his team brighter ideas are needed from Brazil now fellow come caught in possession he's fortunate of Falls for Kobe out searching ball again unable to pick out a teammates shirt [Applause] why - Hamza Muhammad back for Brazil by Daniel initially and - Matt - zealot and that will be a free kick to Brazil [Music] [Applause] is there time thrill equalizer before the break and Brazil make this set P Scout you picked on looking for space up a far post from where the ball will come here so the board tang will be aware that Ronaldinho tried to feed into the top corner from a similar position to this earlier as well this time from Roldan yo but he does battle on to keep the opportunity alive here war from the crowd as ganna come of a prowler can't put the challenge on Fernando second goal for Ghana Brazil really would be in big trouble [Music] strong defending from Jorge Enya gets it back from a bank and Rec Farrakhan candy captain drag his team back into this final and again the Palmetto speed fielder but it's a sloppy ball Brazil a rattled a bit at the moment right put it too far in front of a free [Applause] better Bowl this time Fabio Pinto finding himself a very closely marked mad Pinto score four goals here this tournament already but he hasn't had space to breathe in this final uri is again immediately relieved at possession [Applause] a back to answer Tremonti able to receive the return likes these long quarterback style passes and for a moment it might have fallen for Ronaldinho mama did just enough to help it back to poor tang clay there it is the whistle for halftime of the cheers to lead ghanaians this final is going just as they hoped and at halftime at the Cairo International Stadium it is Brazil nil gana 1 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] here we go then a determined looking Brazil team back out on the pitch and ready for the second half of this FIFA under-17 World Championship final 1997 the call from ole sue a free eight came just six minutes before the break can up with a lead which all of Africa will be hoping they can hold on to in this second 45 minutes for Brazil they must try to come from behind if they are to get their hands on the trophy no changes in personnel over the break we've got the same Elevens that started the game respectively as the evening shadows begin to creep under the floodlights across the pitch of the Cairo International Stadium it could challenge by Georgie no to win possession for Brazil as they try to lay down an early marker they started the second half that's the way to go about it it was Natsu solid he was already scored at this under-17 World Championship in Egypt left footed shot and you have to say it's a magnificent save it was heavy for the top corner boy take finger tipping it out for this corner taken by Ronaldinho still straight out of the traps at the start of this second half with ground to catch up real optimism now to the South Americans what all the response speak from Ghana here is their goalscorer a free flag is raised that's an upside decision and a free-kick from Brazil heart's still racing in the gather defense they came so close to giving up their one goal lead they're right at the start of the second half and Matsu zalim extremely unfortunate here is Andre - Diego rink God it was a bit sluggish in the opening 45 minutes Azul will be hoping from more for him now daddy out his long searching balls from him are not quite finding their target at the moment Ronaldinho was his target [Music] you make quite into scamper after each year there's a Bayes cross and it flashed through in frog to that trap juku here trying to keep the chants alive full of silky skills and tricks but we still feeling the Paul had gone out of play before it came back in again just a little reminder for Brazil there as they go and search about equalizer they can't afford to leave any gaps of the back for gala to go and double their lead Duffy out and measured past this time through the midfield Bell was held up we fail them Mateusz Alan this is Diego vinca it's a good challenge very good challenge Messiah Abdul Rahman fortunate with the through poor who souffle is lightning fast but even he couldn't get onto that this is Joe Chino for Brazil to pick out not too Zama thank God nice touch for about now Ronaldinho Georgie neo is a higher temple from Brazil now in the second half by hamsa Muhammad Istanbul by Fernando and he said the pressure here and that is wonderful poised to regain his stance Fernando who seemed to be squandering and yet he managed to rectify the situation comfortably it's a very neat turn T of white shirts back in defense for Ghana and a chance to clear away Fabio Pinto the Brazilian number nine to win back position of being felled it's a free kick to Brazil needed to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in now peep toe who's had precious few sites of goal from himself running back towards his own halfway line here but drawing the foul and anywhere will do with the fence and as Daniel Quay gets it away [Applause] Virginia up from left back to take the throne Ronaldinho still as they do at every level look to their number 10 at times like this when they need to be dug out of a situation no way through for Ronaldinho on that occasion though and be out when your player plays alongside Ronaldinho at the youth team at club level look quite a hesitation and Fabio Pinto could be in here and it's saved by us a poet a it was just stretched away from Fabio Pinto a heavy touch in the build-up just there took it too far in front of him he was stretching as he attempted the shot Brazil's closest opportunity in the game for some time struggled to get into the gana penalty area throughout Fernando trying to get things moving through the midfield very relaxed defending Daniel quake on ruffled this is hamza muhammed managed to keep it it played here for a free stop to the game of the white wing finish the first half of the left wing where he scored and now he's back out in that natural habitat on the right hand side again Diego Rincon trying to get Brazil movie Fernando is left Ronaldinho short here but a good recovery by Ronaldinho mother your pit top applying better pressure now support arrives rink on can they forge the opening for the Sharks it comes in from actors islet and it's saved my ass a boy tank this is more like it now from Brazil they've been awoken from their slumber not to Salim he was heading for the bottom corner it was a good shot it needed a very good save Gino to Ronaldinho hooked away by rockler Fernando goes long [Applause] but I get it's become a strappy final here [Applause] have you been done he's physically - no need to meet a hat-trick in this final if he was to claim the golden bird to give up at first touch actually - salad battles on its own a busy penalty area put CAD finder clean way through his answer supported by razzaq Brazil are hungry to get on the pole now Fernando lunging it the first time for these Brazilian players on average six months older than their kannaiyan counterparts could become more of a factor as the warm evening pays honor the fatigue starts to creep in not to zalem try to win a foul here on the edge of the penalty area and he's gonna get it as well and the instant he might have just run into the defender Norwegian referee says it's a Brazilian free-kick South Americans make their first change of the final Giovanni who is a four do place for Cruzeiro turns 18 in January he will come on in place of Diego Renko - sweet sparkling throughout this tournament in Egypt but hasn't had his best even in this final Lincoln makes way chiavari who's a very skillful player will come on to replace him some new fresh ideas in attack for Brazil Ronaldinho stands over this free-kick priscila committed plenty of players forward here the cool keeper decided early he was going to punch that Boateng to zalem helped out by georgie neo very much battling characteristics of the Gammons as they stand their ground on the edge of the penalty area and as he's answer wins the free kick you ain't got to panting the field to allow the arrival of Giovanni offers different attributes the egg or a convent can't toll of powerful and he is more in the kinky winger bold Brazilian wide players answer need to be careful to keep their shape here still them well till this stage its flurry of attacking activity from Brazil since the break it's caused a bit of a rejigging a defender coming on here Isaac a whoop come on to replace a woolly cry so that is a midfielder going off and a defensive minded player coming on mr. Caruso who has been one of the best players of this tour nobody was an injury doubt ahead of the final but he is going to get to play in the majority of the second half here it's a kawasu cannon looking to hold on to their one goal lead achieved a goal follow suit flamed right at the end of the first half it's not to zalem who's having a good game for Brazil he's been as active as any of them try to pick out the new man Giovanni but well handled by Abdul Razzaq answer good work in the midfield from Brazil here is Ronaldinho has he got any tricks up that sleeve tackled but such as the tenacity of Ronaldinho that he runs and wins it back again free steam and areas again for a third time involved in the move setting o8 giovanni first chance for him to get into a crossing position not to Salim we'll keep it in play we sing so much more from the Brazilians now it's brought on a fighting quality in the not-too Salam's delivery free enter the far post it just couldn't apply the power there much much better from Brazil though this to Salim had his chance to look up there's no marking in the back post watching digger trees looking odd and up there amongst those posh seats he's the great Pele himself watching up here is Ronaldinho I'd have done better with the opportunity a few moments ago trying to flick it there over the head of La Zack he's done enough there Ronaldinho to witty Steve a corner nervous moments reporting in the kanae inter feds he's done well I'll say poets angry goalkeeper who plays with a great Olympics club in Ghana that locates he's relieved a lot of pressure freeze team and sends them back down into Brazilian territory here on in in this final it's not about the performance it's not about impressing or watching Scouts this is about getting the job done now for Ghana and Emanuel Ax franny their coach they have given themselves a great opportunity they have got this one goal lead but they are up against a different beast now Fabio Pinto stopped in his tracks by Hamza Mohammed that's exactly the sort of challenge that gana needed him to produce there now put a space opening up this is a joke oh he's miles out that is such a speculative effort he had better options and on that occasion he only had a knife recalled himself roughly ten minutes into this second half and Brazil continuing their pursuit of Ghana's lead it's no doubt there's been improvement so the South Americans but will it be enough can they find the killer strike the up into sport forward here does pick out Giovanni and they get it's a shoot from sight policy and I'll tell you what that is one of the best shots we've seen in the game Boateng surprised to see it come in its rattled off the crossbar and for a moment it looks suspiciously like it might have gone in down it comes lands outside the coal area but that is as close as Brazil have come to make it 1-1 in the game much much better for the South Americans in the winger Giovanni it was brought on clearly under the instruction to have a go to have a puppet the target whenever possible and he very nearly made it 1-1 we suit substitute for gana just sitting in as an extra defensive layer in front of the back for Brazil come from deep with Farrakhan the captain from PAL Maris but all that's doing is returning possession to Ghana and the African nation keep their cool now this is a time for level heads the captain Akram will look to lead by example got a joker out Saudi but he won't be able to pick him up this is Fernando Brazil suddenly shifted through the gears it's halftime they're playing with so much more momentum yet they still trail ball nil Daniel crime challenge on Georgina and a free-kick awarded to Brazil the foul from wisdom obey Ronaldinho for were too savvy your Pinto good job for Liza kawasu here is a true [Music] yogurt getting the head up looking for the safe pass rather than the risky one and that's what ganna need to do ticking on in their favor as we reach the our mark of the match it is matters a lot Giovanni's attempt from distance hitting the underside of the crossbar Boateng was beaten and Brazil really could not come any closer to getting their equalizer and making it 1-1 and that was half a centimeter lower he would have clipped the bar and gone in drunk shoots of encouragement from the arrival of giorgio brazil will try and get him on the ball again said again searching for that right-wing rat sacked the defender back there and he's done well entertainments on and off the field in Cairo this crowd to be treated to any further calls or will the one strike be enough from ursua free in the first half for Ghana fifteen you encode them clearly tricks up their sleeve I'm not quite sure they can pull that particular trick off certain will be head over heels if they can hold on for this victory into the world upon the the FIFA under-17 World Championships it would be some turn up for the books if this get a attain could complete this job against their illustrious Brazilian counterparts so many of these Brazilians would have been tracked by the top clubs bright futures ahead of them all the kanay ins unknown quantities but they'll be very much hot property now if they can hold on for this scrappie in the midfield but Kanak dishing out as much as they receive at the moment the great Pele watching art involved in too many finals that Brazil lost himself after the not a lay on the winning side when wearing the yellow and blue it's a nice touch Ronaldinho searching into the penalty area he said it well and the follow up is in and Matt to Salah makes it one word and Brazil are rewarded for their excellent work since halftime Ronaldinho Saturday motion and matters alum was some hand to finish the rebound Brazil one can award and this surge from Ronaldinho set it on a brilliant shot from him denied by Boateng but the shot was too hot to handle and matters alum the Victoria player who's been full of hard running all evening he's chased a few lost causes like they said to the penalty area without reward this time it felt perfectly for him map to zalem makes it 1-1 in the final [Music] justiça see how can I respond as Appeals for a penalty which appeals falling on deaf ears for now about took the gold score wrote not does a lip can I get it back a free it no way through it's brighten the mood for the Brazilian supporters in the crowd now we flick in the build-up therefore Ronaldinho and then flicked it on to himself this was the Brazilian Flair we were hoping to see in this final now into the final half-hour of the match it suddenly comes to the fore question is can Brazil having come from behind can they now go on to take the lead themselves can ganna bounce back it's from the end from the set piece [Music] he was header but it won't keep it in play throwing will pay the commands [Music] you know taking no chances it's throat is in towards the feet a big dog that's a very good term that's more like what he could do we've not seen the best of you in this final yet Fabio Pinto but he could be in here oh he just left the ball behind him as he broke into the penalty area but that was much more like it from Fabio Pinto all Dino Brazilians beginning to turn on the party pieces now Andre good run from the right back we've not seen him come on the attack too often in the match he's been held up by his defensive responsibilities but we saw in the earlier rounds how he loves to come forward Ronaldinho try to shuffle a little path to Fabio Pinto can are struggling to put passes together now they are feeling the pressure [Music] he's a caboose ooh yes sir Mohammed Mohammed he's got a really good right boot in it trust us on that right-hand side particular deep ones have caused problems for the Brazilian defense throughout free takes to throw himself a trap defender is Fernando throw-in to Ghana [Applause] she's conceded the goal of the first app Brazilian goalkeeper Fabio's not had many to save himself he's had a few blaze off target towards it I'm gonna test the Brazilian keeper in this second 45 minutes it's a tumble rather dramatically by wisdom obey on the edge of the penalty area wasn't gonna get anything there quais clearance this is good way in the end by Andre the são Paulo right back effortlessly controlled by Ronaldinho back to Georgina you know the palmaris player was fouled free-kick to Brazil one one in the final in the Egyptian capital or the other we will get an outcome even if because all the way to penalties this final gets decided tonight with Georgina [Music] lay-by rahman lovely first touch really good buy a free and take it with him though he's Razzaq [Applause] I've committed a few white shirts forward here becomes a shot from Razak and it hits the side netic well it's encouraging for Ghana as they absorb pressure down one end the African nation come and try and apply some pressure down the other into the final quarter of the regulation 90 minutes now [Music] answer symmetry and the right wing of the left wing it's being awfully player to watch throughout this tournament it's close touch control again this is answer respected from that distance it's 20 minutes to how the players know it is worth having a crack you never quite know and these efforts could fly into the net and end up being the winning goal not just of this game but of the tournament as a whole Hammet into wisdom of a chance to look up for a trap an awful lot on that too much really to play on the far side by Google broad arrives from Vlasak and in a way by Georgie neo flag had been raised and once again free kick to Brazil on a chance for them to clear their lines can have responded well to the equalizer you know opening stages of the first half Brazil were on top but Emanuel Ax Franny's team and steadied the ship here back to 1-1 and gano back creating problems of their own back asking questions of the Brazilian defense to salad the man whose goal has leveled it up at 1-1 to about turned 17 in July in fast gatta gamma player whose alumns sliding tackle unable to hold on to possession for Brazil [Applause] mr. Bozak right good it is and he does test the call keeper Fabio makes the say to do that Abdul Razak cutting in to ease right boot did well to steady himself could save down cause Fabio pinto playoffs as the referee AB a seeing a lot of the porn on that right wing at the moment comes across from Akron [Applause] chica was the target in the middle and anywhere will do for Brazil as they clear it away good period of pressure this from the Canadians [Music] the African nation and all to make their second change of this final Michael cookie will come off school to get scuffed a week in the group-stage he also scored against a man in the quarterfinals he's a good player it takes the place of Muslim obey and you had picked up a yellow card in the game not so long ago chance to these attempts from ganas they try to regain a lead that's been taken away from them disappointing crossing from Mohammed this is a judo supporting midfield from answer and again let's put too much on that the first one was too weak the second he overcompensated by balloony we've said a few times finals like this it's when cool heads are needed who can keep their composure [Music] Mohammed [Music] futsuka still controlled by a mama gets involved again that's very close to the goal keeper if Fabio under-pressured as well it's an easy with the free jumping just in front of him but he's done very well the Brazilian goalkeeper [Music] as he's answer a judge to a fold not to zalem still wasting no time getting on with it but Georgie no asking far too much if Fabio Pinto please come on oh my word it's going to be a red card Fabio Pinto Brazil's top scorer at this tournament has been shown a straight red card by the Norwegian referee Teddy Hager what happened there Pinto in pursuit of the pole he must have struck out of the opponent he has been shown a red card and there isn't many complaints coming from Brazil's number 9 Wow what seems now in this final locked at 1-1 Brazil will have to play the final 20 minutes or so with only 10 men surely this gives a big advantage now to the men from Ghana neutral Egyptians watching on in the crowd increasingly supporting the African nation here they've had the lead over Brazil they've been pegged back to 1-1 but now a red card for Fabio Pinto of all people the Brazilian star here he is in pursuit and out goes his left-hand clipping the ear of Daniel Kwai well it's not a punch or a lunge there is a raised hand that connects with the head in this day and age you can't get away with that Fabio Pinto will be disgusted to have seen red when really there was no need for anything to happen there it's been a final in which he was clearly frustrated his body language wasn't great and that frustration has come out in a in a needless wave of his hand no real harm done to the opponent but the referee seeing it as a blow to the head and not hesitating and showing the red card this is gonna be a huge talking point for the press conferences after the game particularly if Brazil had to go on and lose now here is a juco can he produce something temp to lunch forward by AIESEC elusive the Madrid fresh legs having come on as the second half substitute this is rockman not a good ball Brazil win it back and they will get a free kick midway inside their own half oh it's tense now in Cairo it really is positioning by Razzaq comes flying in all over the place now this is Giovanni doing well for Brazil and he wins a free kick as well as I quit the challenge on Giovanni anything you know he stumbled on that a bit himself do you have a neat trod on the ball he's trying to execute a Brazilian trick that didn't quite come off but the referee believing it to be a foul from Abdul Raziq has given Brazil this free kid quarter of an hour to play thereabouts Giovanni he's giving this long look miles over here but his body language suggesting that he fancies a crack at this it was a long run up it was a long way out and it was very much a long way off target from Giovanni the crossbar earlier on in the game but able to cause further trouble for the Guinean defense there famous from Mohammed you see [Music] and up trying to see the past to pick forward but a measure of that came from both sides that the long ball tactics haven't quite come up in the game it's when they've been intricate that they've looked more effective that's very clever they're lovely little shimmy dummy by a bell to allow the ball beyond it here is the scampering to Yvonne II again Laurie takes a tumble but maintained cleanly one possession first grade injection of pace from Giovanni down he goes for the referee not interested in awarding a penalty he certainly offered Brazil something a bit different going forward since coming on wrong pace as much as anything and now that they've lost Fabio Pinto the centre forward they need Giovanni all the more he's operating as the central striker now held by Fabio in defence Brazil over man town in need of treatment inside the penalty area they play on for now Fabio's clearance to put them on a plate to allow treatment on frees teammate but play continues this is a juku can I look to come back at answer again you don't buy a ticket you can't win the raffle answer taking on the spectacular again one of these long-range shots going to end up with the back of the net and be good enough to win this final I sell at the moment temporarily down to nine man vo Pinto has been sent off their defenders is receiving treatment lying on the ground behind the call mount the way to our right it's a two-man advantage at the moment for Kanak can they make it countess who sue blazes it away cleany this took a deflection on the way through and I'll take it dead caruso been a fantastic performer in getting gana to this final not fit enough to start the showpiece game tonight the moment in line to finish it can he produce something for gana to win it [Music] here's again rusev looking for a joke ooh there's not standing on ceremony from gana they've got three players waiting at the busy penalty area here to miscued cross in the end - boo hoo done very well in the build-up but unable to deliver a final killer pass Jew of the hearts of oak club club teammates in this under-17 national squad for Ghana Giovanni holding up well central strikers raw Latinos gone out to take up a position the right wing now at Giovanni operating as the main central striker here is Jeanne over on the left-hand side and did well to her the tackle completely overcooked to the cross and somewhat of a wasted opportunity for Brazil Gino who has played all of Brazil's games here in Egypt at this other 17 event answer Zeca woo see in the outlet is Emanuel and Joe gurus at a busy second half causing problems for Andre the Brazilian right back here he goes again at juku can he provide a pen across this time it's a tester for Fabio and the Brazilian goalkeeper does well shoku at the moment looking as threatening as any of his teammates outside of the right boot with a cross will help other goalkeeper quick [Music] [Applause] at trap challenge Hill the edge of the penalty area Brazil strong where they need to be however results in a corner for Ghana because pressure continues stages they might be getting the upper hand on this final young Canadians managed to discover a new tempo and you rhythm a new way of getting themselves back into it Mohammed's delivery wusu trice it from Martha took a deflection it kinda got it well that was so close Isaac kawasu drilling it in last touch of a Brazilian defender really could have wrong-footed the goalkeeper it came off Gavi out [Applause] susannah score of brazil's goal that they have got in this final so far Ronaldinho looking for the hard running of Giovanni has been full of that's--it's garage on so well here Giovanni and another chance at the moment making a mockery of being dead a dead man because they are at least holding their own stationed there when he needed to be this is the Duggal he's away again support this time from a trap now it's a free and stuff like to answer didn't really catch all the bird on his weaker left foot his knees answer in school already at this event to claim what might be a winning goal in the final he's had a few cracks of the target tonight he's tamer efforts Ozzy's answer is Abdul Razak in Cairo and very much running out as week into the closing minutes now is final gonna go longer so Mohammed beginning to show signs of fatigue now on that right-hand side for Ghana he is gonna be a winner within 90 minutes here it is going to be very late goal - your Valley back to Matt do salad so once the throw in for Gannett - sounds claiming it for a Brazil the - number 11 is classic reaching were free confirms the throw and will be for the South Americans watching yo this will call for it now throw the kitchen sink ten minute Brazil wouldn't fancy extra time that's very nice played on by a bell for Ronaldinho and Andre is up from right back at he scores Andre makes it 2-1 for Brazil and surely wins the under-17 World title there are less than three minutes remaining in the game Andre who I don't think has come on the attack for the entire match but look how Ronaldinho picks him out here a graceful touch of the Brazilian number 10 it was wobbling everywhere for Andre that is such a cool finish in the circumstances and who would have thought it the right back Andre of Sao Paulo with a goal that puts Brazil in front for the first time in this final and surely there isn't enough time now for Ghana to come back it's a brilliant pass from Ronaldinho to set it up but Andre is the man who scores and Brazil lead gana 2-1 the 10-man have managed to take the lead right on the very end here Fernando does well under pressure in the air but he can't prevent it from going for a quarter it isn't over yet the Brazilian fans are celebrating of the crowd preparing to move it to stop its time at the end of the 90 minutes Brazil have left it late but with such a flourish Andre has made it 2-1 Ghanaians look absolutely shell-shocked today he was Brazil make a very late substitution just running down the clock now entre who's exhausted I think for the run celebrating the goal as much as anything else he goes off we get mascot the gamma burger walnuts one defender replacing another wasn't far off target for the corner cannot throw everything now we're trying to get an equalizer of the road this was the goal this was the moment Ronaldinho setting it up for Andre didn't he do well with a goalkeeper rushing out to it there was no margin for error there one touch to control it one touch to finish a wonderful execution and a goal worthy perhaps of winning the final of this magnitude I'm still preparing to make another change down there they're really looking to run down the clock now and can't really blame them being down to ten men Enrique whose commodities first appearance of the tournament hasn't been involved in the journey to get to this final but areas now for the closing stages so Muhammad trying to inspire gana and get them in motion going forward again anywhere will do for Brazil as they hope for clear giovanni it's been such a menace it's coming on and he could be in again this is giovanni for brazil one-on-one against rocman rockman did really well [Applause] d-did a tulip janab battling up can they find an african miracle here in cairo good first touch from elusive but he can't keep the shot doubt he secured wushu one of the players at this tournament and he nearly stole some late headlines there played back to him from a trap well struck on the left booth but just too high to be ganas last big opportunity I'm still pulling out every trick in the book Rogerio down they're ready to come up eat into the clock can't desperate times of desperate measures shots be rained in from all angles from Ganner but to their celebrations already on the touchline for brazil they believe they've done enough quickly take it corner Ari's answer trying to flick it through for a trap Brazil are all boys there to the world on this Everdeen title share EO will take the place of Matt Susannah what a game he's had scorer of a very important goal of the time to make it 1-1 2000 the 17-year old then grabbed the opportunities in midfield to wrestle the game in Brazil's favor he departs two goals to his name now for the tournament we kicked to Ghana who will battle on the shrill whistles of the Brazilian fans who just want this game to be over we'd worked by faragon resilient captain will he be lifting the trophy at just a few minutes time he's such scrutiny this Brazilian tape these youngsters will be highly sought after or rogério here now this really can finish it all off for Brazil at ease first touch he's only just couple han han rogério completely fluffs the shot what an opportunity that would have been - surely seen it but it doesn't matter now anyway there is the final whistle and Brazil have been crowned world champions under-17 for 1997 this talented team look at the celebration under Fabio Pinto who was sent off is engulfed by his teammates relief for the number nine he remains their top scorer for the tournament the red card doesn't matter now but per se low as you can see mustard eleven shots on goal they will feel they had the better of this final two of them found the back of the net and those are the two goals the cards Brazil have beaten gana by two goals to one and they are the champions in Egypt [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] seven by giving them another one with [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
