The Uruguay U20 national team will face the Israel U20 national team in Semi-finals of the 2023 FIFA U20 World Cup on Thursday, June 08, 2023. Live streaming of Uruguay U20 vs Israel U20, preview, lineup predictions, and how to watch the match live broadcast, can be watched in this article.
The U20 World Cup in Argentina is full of surprises. Israel’s U20s are a team not to be overlooked but now no one dares to look down on them in Argentina. They keep growing from game to game.
In the group stage, U20 Israel narrowly lost 1-2 to U20 Colombia. However, in the second match, they managed to draw against the more favored U20 Senegal.
And in the last 3 matches, the team from Jerusalem managed to convincingly defeat U20 Japan (at the end of the group stage), U20 Uzbekistan (quarter-finals) and U20 Brazil (with a score of 3-2 after extra time).
The Israel U20 national team was the biggest surprise at this year’s tournament. In particular the win over the Brazilian giants at U20 level after 120 minutes of play was an event that took the football world by storm and recorded the biggest feat in the history of Israeli football. This is their first time participating in this tournament and they have made history.
Meanwhile, Uruguay’s U20 run has been impressive. After a shock 2-3 loss to England U20s in the second match of the group stage, the South American side won their next 4 matches without conceding a single goal. They showed that they are prime candidates for this year’s championship.
Of the 4 teams that entered the semifinals (including Italy’s U20 and South Korea’s U20), none have ever won a championship. Uruguay’s U20s have only been runners-up twice, in 1997 and 2013.
The U20 Uruguay have a well-balanced squad, with lots of interesting players like Duarte, Franco Gonzalez, Diaz, Santos and an attractive playing style. Ahead of the meeting with Israel’s U20s, coach Marcelo Carlo Broli did not miss any important players.
Therefore, U20 Uruguay will try hard to overcome the phenomenon of U20 Israel and win a ticket to the final against U20 South Korea or U20 Italy.
On the other hand, Israel’s U20 also has great players. They were Khalaili, Turgeman, Shibli – the scorers who brought down Brazil’s U20s in the quarter-finals. The first two names have scored 2 goals each in this tournament in the country of Tango. Coach Broli hopes they can continue to shine so that the Israel U20s can work a miracle against the U20 Uruguay who are much stronger than them.
