The field is also complete for the Final Tournament of the 24th edition
of the FIFA U20 World Cup finals, which will be staged in Chile, 27th
September – 19th October.

Two-time runners-up and one-time bronze-medallists Nigeria lead the
African challenge that also includes Egypt, Morocco and South Africa.

Ghana, the only African country to have won the championship (when Egypt
hosted in 1999), failed to reach this year’s global finals after penalty
shoot-out defeat by hosts Egypt in the quarter-finals of the ongoing
African finals.

Nigeria lost to Portugal in the final of the 1989 championship in Saudi
Arabia, and to Argentina in Holland in 2005. After losing their
semi-final tie to Brazil in 1985, the Flying Eagles defeated host nation
USSR after penalty shoot-out to pick up the bronze medals.
