Brazil's practice session on the eve of the semi-final ended with a series of penalties taken against all three goalkeepers. The England U-17 squad arrived at the practice pitch beside the Salt Lake Stadium at about four in the evening on Tuesday, exactly 25 hours before their World Cup semi-final against Brazil, arguably the biggest game in the short careers of these prodigious talents. "For an England U-17 team to qualify for the semi-finals of the World Cup for the first time ever makes us very proud," said coach Steve Cooper.
