Next Up: Spain - Austria Semi-finals 14 May 2003 15:00 (local time) If Spain's U-17 team is anything like the one they sent to the tournament in Egypt over the winter break (a U-18 team) Austria is in for a long afternoon. Spain - Italy 2-0 Israel - Spain 0-3 England-Spain 2-2 They have scored 7 goals and only given up 2.
Hmmm, I wonder if this'll be on TV. Eurosport, probably. Although if Spain is as good as you say, I'll only have to watch the first ten minutes or so anyway.
Austria has already had a good showing. A loss to Spain would not be tragic. Here is Spain's qualifying record: Spain - Bulgaria 3-0 Wales - Spain 0-3 France - Spain 0-2 In six UEFA games, Spain has scored 15 goals and only let 2 in. Austria had better be ready for this one. According to Eurosports webpage: http://www.eurosport.co.uk/static_f...sportid=10000&personid=2&venueid=0&Gener=true Both games will be shown: 10:00 Football European Under-17 Championship Portugal Semi-finals 11:30 Football European Under-17 Championship Portugal Semi-finals How this is going to work, I have no idea. I thought the Austria game was at 15h00 local time. I don't get eurosport, so too bad for me.
Match Preview: http://www.uefa.com/competitions/Under17/News/Kind=1/newsId=69137.html Two of Austria's starting side are out with yellow card accumilation. Their best defender and one of their best attackers. Mabye they will put 11 behind the ball and hope for a shoot-out. I hope not, but it is possible.
http://www.uefa.com/competitions/Under17/News/Kind=1/newsId=69363.html Spain wins 5-2. Three goals in the first 15 minutes pus Austria in a huge hole to start the match. Nice run though. Much better than I though they would do.

I hate third place games. No someone (probably Austria) is going to have to go home with a fourth-place finish. They don't do that at Wimbledon. Why can't they just call them both semifinalists and call it good?
I agree that third place games are sort of dumb. Here is the result: http://www.uefa.com/competitions/Under17/fixturesresults/round=1592/match=71174/Report=RP.html Austria wins 1-0 Nice showing.
