The U17 World Cup quarter-finals ushered in a highlight, with Portugal facing Switzerland.

Portugal eliminated the Slovenia team in the quarter-finals, while Switzerland eliminated the Irish team in the quarter-finals. Switzerland has only been tied with South Korea in the group stage and has won the rest of the games. The Portuguese team has only lost to Japan in the group stage and won the rest. It can be seen that the Swiss team may be in slightly better shape than the Portuguese team. In terms of paper strength, the Portuguese team is recognized as being stronger than the Swiss team, so before the game, more than 80% of the fans were full of confidence in Portugal defeating Switzerland.

In the 41st minute of the first half, Anisio made a wonderful pass, and 17-year-old Mateusz Meade hit the goal from close range to help the Portuguese team take the lead.

In the 8th minute of the second half, Neto helped Portugal gain another victory.

In the end, Portugal defeated Switzerland as expected and advanced to the semi-finals of the U17 World Cup. However, it was a pity that the Swiss team missed the semi-finals.

The Portuguese team had more than 60% of the ball possession throughout the game, took more corner kicks than the Swiss team, and also took far more shots than the Swiss team.

For Portugal, Stevan started the battle together with Mateusz Meade, Cermic, Neto, Quintas and other powerful players.
