Paraguay came from behind to clinch a crucial 4-2 win over New Zealand. Alan Rodriguez scored the opener for Paraguay but the unfortunate captain Alexis Duare netted…two own goals for New Zealand ! However, the South Americans’ pressure in the second half turned the game back their way as Anibal Vega scored a brace. Blas Armoa got also his name on the scoresheet in the last minutes of the game.
Few hours before, Mali earned a deserved win against Turkey (3-0). The Africains won the game thanks to goals from Djemoussa Traoré, Lassana N’Diaye and Fode Konaté.
Group C : Iran 6 pts, Germany 3 pts, Costa Rica 1 pt, Guinea 1 pt.

In the other game of the group, Costa Rica shared the spoils with Guinea (2-2). Costa Rica took the lead twice thanks to Yecxy Jarquin and Andres Gomez but Guinea secured a point as Fandje Touré and Ibrahima Soumah scored for the Africans.
Group D : Brazil 6 pts, Spain 3 pts, Niger 3 pts, North Korea 0 pt.
Brazil are qualified for the last round of 16 after their 2-0 win over North Korera. Paulinho and Lincoln were decisive again for the Seleçao as they scored the winning goals.

Group E : France 6 pts, Japan 3 pts, Honduras 3 pts, New Caledonia 0 pt.
The competition’s top scorer Amine Gouiri (4 goals) helped France to clinch a 2-1 crucial win over Japan. The Olympique Lyonnais youngster scored twice while Taisei Miyashiro reduced the deficit for Japan.
In the other game, Honduras hammered New Caledonia (5-1). Patrick Palacios shone as he scored twice.
Group F : England 6 pts, Irak 4 pts, Mexico 1 pt, Chile, 0 pt.
England send warning to their rivals as the Young Lions earned their second win in a row against Chile (3-2). Rhain Brewster has opened the scoring with a stunning free-kick while Philip Foden doubled the lead for his side few minutes later. After assisting the England’s second goal, the Borussia Dortmund player Jordan Sancho got his name on the scoresheet as he converted a penalty. In the last minutes, Diego Lainez scored a brace but it wasn’t enough to stop England claiming victory.
Irak are in a good position after their 3-0 win over Chile. Mohamed Dawood distinguished himself again for the Asians as he netted twice to take his tally to three goals in the competition !
