Brazil edges Spain

BRAZIL defeated Spain on penalties on Sunday in a match that, despite being only a quarterfinal, will be viewed by many as the "real final" between the two best teams in the Under-20 World Cup in Colombia. In the end it came down to chance with Brazil winning 4-2 in the shootout after a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes and a 2-2 stalemate after 30 minutes of extra time. In the day's other quarterfinal, France defeated Nigeria 3-2 in extra time. That sets up tomorrow's semifinals with Brazil facing Mexico in Pereira, and France up against Portugal in Medellin.
