England, Venezuela in final
Print Edition
ENGLAND and Venezuela came from behind yesterday to advance to the Under-20 World Cup final in South Korea. England got a brace from Dominic Solanke in a 3-1 win over Italy in Jeonju. Venezuela goalkeeper Wuilker Farinez made the key save in a shootout as his team beat Uruguay 4-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in Daejeon.
After Riccardo Orsolini gave Italy the lead in only the 2nd minute, Liverpool-bound Solanke equalized in the 66th and added the third in the 88th. Ademola Lookman scored the other goal in the 77th. England and Venezuela are in the tournament’s final — in Suwon on Sunday — for the first time. Earlier, Samuel Sosa scored an injury-time equalizer and Farinez made the big save for Venezuela by stopping a penalty from Nicolas De La Cruz in the shootout. De La Cruz had given Uruguay the lead from the spot in the 49th minute.
