Brazil and Spain to contest final

Brazil and Spain to contest final

Brazil beat England by 5 goals to 1 to progress through to the semi finals where they will meet Spain.

Despite a great effort by England they were out played by a skilful Brazil team that once ahead never looked back.

Spain left it late against China progressing by the only goal of the game.

In the days other matches France edged out Colombia on sudden death penalties to win the 5th place play off. Argentina beat a Japanese team who have gone all 5 games in the competition without scoring whilst Greece finished on a bright note beating South Korea who take home the wooden spoon.
