Semi-Final:
Nigeria 3-0 Morocco

In the beginning I was expecting Morocco to play well, combine, play the ball quickly, but the opposite happend. The Nigerian defenders were very strong again and Morocco have had only 1 or 2 chances throughout the whole match.

Nigeria made 3 good goals and in the end they showed us some "gallery play". The Moroccan players got frustrated and made some big fouls, which should have been dark red. Unfortunately the referee can only give red.

Two red cards for 2 of the hardest tackles I have ever seen.

Final, 2nd July 2005
Nigeria - Argentina

Two late goals from Fabio Santos and Edcarlos helped Brazil to a win over Morocco in the third place match at the FIFA World Youth Championships in The Netherlands.

And Morocco's goalkeeper, who failed again.

Final:
Argentina 2-1 Nigeria

The South-Americans had a tough evening. Lionel Messi scored 2 penalties and that's why Nigeria lost. They made some pretty stupid fouls. Another good tournament has ended ...
