La Plata. Uruguay beat Italy 1. 0 to win the Under-20 World Cup football title for the first time. With this, the winning streak of the European teams from the last four times in the tournament was also broken. Luciano Rodríguez scored the winning goal in the 86th minute with a header. The majority of the 40,000-plus spectators present at the Diego Maradona Stadium were Uruguayan supporters. FIFA President Gianni Infantino also came to watch the match.
Uruguay and Italy were not title contenders before the tournament, but clubs in Brazil, Argentina and England did not release players for the tournament. It is not mandatory for clubs to release players for international junior tournaments. Uruguay has lost the final in 1997 and 2013. The last time Brazil won the title from South America was in 2011. Earlier, Israel gave South Korea 3. 1 to secure the third position.
