That year Mexico kicked Brazil out of the tournament winning 5-3 in the penalty shootout. But tomorrow Brazil will walk on the pitch as the favourites for what sounds like a promising attacking spectacle.
On one hand, Brazil can count on their strong attacking abilities. The auriverde score on average 2.6 goals per game and their three attacking players: Henrique, Philippe Coutinho and Dudu scored three goals each.
But on the other hand, Mexico is boosted by their U17 World Cup title conquered earlier this year. And their attacking capacities are not all that bad. They scored seven times in the tournament and five of those goals were scored in the second half. Which means Brazil will need to be focused until the very end of the game.
