U-20 Toulon Festival

[rsnjg]

howdy y'all

first post

anyway was just watchin eurosport and saw France Vs. Brazil, OMG what a game final result was 2-1 to France after a 80th min (U-20 games only have 80mins not 90) penalty for handball.

saw some very promising players for both teams some with 1st team experiance already aliadiere, le tallec, pongolle and brazil have some very good defensive players ( ) as well as the usual quality forwards.

anyway game ended in a huge fight/hangbags with the brazil subs rushing the pitch......

what a game......what a future

anyone else see it?

PS. final is Sweden Vs. France

i didnt see it but i saw pics of aliadiere in action... he seems very promising (when hes not under pressure)
who were the scorers?

first, Welcome to SG rsnjg.

I don't have this tournament on TV. I watched it a few years ago when they showed it on FSW. There were great players, the level is pretty good.
I'll try to get the highlights of that game you're talkin about.

Bryan Bergougnoux x 2 for France, Fernandinho for Brazil. Good match, France won at the last minute with a penalty, a brazilian defender did a hand fault. Jérémie Aliadière played well, he shooted twince, but the Brazilian keeper is so good.

yeah, thought aliadiere should have scored but had a bad first touch other than that, he had a good game. also Gael Clichy was on the bench but never came on.

 

[Guillaume]

He is injured. He talked on the French TV last evening, he thinks that he'll play the final on thursday

 

[rsnjg]

cool
thats good to know hes getting his chance. do you know if pongolle was injured when he was subbed or was it tactical?because i think that le tallec will definitly start the final and if pongolle is fit then they must play together, which would mean that aliadiere doesnt play.

Yeah, I think that Le Tallec-Pongolle when they play together are simply amazing, but Aliadière can play good with Sinama too. Or Bryan Bergougnoux, he's just substitue and he has already scored 3 goals.

I want this for the final:
Gavanon - Berthod, Colombo, Ciani, Clichy - Flamini, Rio Mavuba, Faé - Meghni - Le Tallec, Sinama-Pongolle.

I think that with this team, we can win the final, but the keeper of sweden is fantastic in this tournament, so attention.

 

[BRAZIL'S_#9]

I just saw the Brazilian line-up and I didn't recognize but about 3 names. Man Brazil should of taken this more seriously we have quality U-20 players, why not let them play?

Brazil took it seriously, France were just better

I live about an hour from Toulon, what day is the final? Will I be able to get tickets? If anyone has highlights or a torrent of the matches so far then itd be great.

Anyone notice that all the England youth squads are rubbish?

How are the Chinese players? I know they finished 1st in the group with France but I wanna know what kinda style they play. Do they have any creative technical players or are they the boring defensive type?
