Five-star England beat Spain to win U17 World Cup

Published on: 28 October 2017

A Phil Foden brace in the second half helped complete a spectacular comeback as England beat Spain 5-2 in the Under-17 World Cup final at Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata.

A first-half brace from Sergio Gomez had Spain on their way before semifinal hero Rhian Brewster pulled one back to send England to the dressing room down 2-1.

England found their equaliser in the 58th minute when Morgan Gibbs-White poked home from close range from a Steven Sessegnon assist to set up Foden's dramatic winner in the 69th minute.

And with Spain looking to level, England sealed victory at the other end with a Marc Guehi strike before Foden added his second to make it five for his team.
