Usa Morocco Fifa U 20 World Cup

NEW YORK, NY — The United States and Morocco, two strong contenders for the FIFA U-20 World Cup title, face off this Sunday in the quarterfinals. Fans can watch the match live on Telemundo starting at 2:00 PM ET.

Both teams are coming off impressive performances. The U.S. team, also known as ‘Las Barras y las Estrellas,’ secured a decisive 3-0 victory against Italy in the Round of 16. The squad showed they could capitalize on their opportunities while maintaining a solid defense.

Despite some doubts during the group stage, where they lost their final match to South Africa, the team, led by coach Marko Mitrovic, finished first in their group. Against Italy, the Americans demonstrated their dominance, making it difficult for their opponents.

Key players include Cole Campbell from Borussia Dortmund and Niko Tsakiris of the San Jose Earthquakes, who have supported star player Benjamin Cremaschi. The 19-year-old Cremaschi, alone, scored five goals in four matches and is the tournament’s top scorer. He netted two goals in the match against Italy, including the decisive third goal.

As the U.S. prepares for this major challenge, players and fans believe this matchup could be a ‘final before the final.’ Morocco is seen by many as the best team in the tournament today, making this quarterfinal an exciting prospect.
