2023 U-17 World Cup Results: Winning Adu Penalti Against Senegal, France To The Quarter Finals

JAKARTA France U-17 qualified for the quarter-finals of the 2023 U-17 World Cup. They became the last team to get tickets following the previous seven teams.

The male chicken made sure to qualify after winning 5-3 over Senegal U-17 on penalties at the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS), North Jakarta, Wednesday, November 22, 2023 evening WIB.

The fate of both teams must be determined through high-fives after playing goalless at normal times. Because there was no extra time, both teams finally went straight to the penalty round.

During the tos-tosan, five U-17 French kickers did their job well. Meanwhile, Daouda Diongu's kick which became Senegal U-17's second kicker was denied by the opposing goalkeeper.

The seven countries that had previously secured tickets to the quarter-finals were Germany U-17, Spain U-17, Brazil U-17, Argentina U-17, Mali U-17, Morocco U-17, and Uzbekistan U-17.

The last name is against France in the quarter-finals. Both teams will meet at the Manahan Stadium, Solo, Central Java, Saturday, November 25, 2023.

Uzbekistan U-17 reached the last eight after surprisingly stopping England U-17. This is their second quarter-final in the history of participation after previously reaching a similar round in the 2011 edition.
