FC Andorra has become the champion of the U18 category after beating Olympique de Marseille by the minimum (1-2) with a comeback included in a vibrant final that had excitement until the end.

He started scoring for the French team and did so before the quarter-hour mark with a goal from Antoine Valero. The attacker faced the goalkeeper and beat him with a strong shot. The tricolor team has not given up, gaining meters as the minutes progressed and tied shortly after. A low cross in the heart of the small area was connected by Rodrigo Pociello, who sent the ball into the net. With the score tied at half-time, the tie was broken just at the start of the second half when Naoufal El Haimir scored the second with a powerful shot that the goalkeeper could not clear. Even Andorra could have scored the third, already in the final stretch and with the game wide open, when they sent a shot against the crossbar.

Without a goal conceded, FC Andorra surpassed the group stage with full victories before leaving rivals such as Aquahotel FC, OVT Academy, Shakhtar Donetk and Real Sociedad by the wayside in the qualifying rounds. They have become the champion of the youth category (U18) and are the third top scorer (20 goals), only surpassed by Athletic Club (23) and Real Sociedad (22).

Ebrima Tunkara, with a header at the end of time, gave victory to the FC Barcelona cadets in the final of the U16 category that pitted the Blaugrana team against Girona FC in Palamós.

He was in the last action of the match, in a service from the corner that ended with the goal of the African footballer after 50 minutes dominated by Barça, who did not manage to materialize with clear opportunities their control of the ball against a a well-positioned opponent, who was able to resist and who starred in some attacks, without much success in the last meters. It was Barça who took the initiative and looked for the goal with insistence. Proof of this are some arrivals in the first half, such as a long shot that grazed the left post or a lateral foul that caught the white-and-red goalkeeper, very surely.

History repeated itself after the break, but neither team managed to open the scoring until the last action. Corner served from the right of the attack, with the ball hanging on the far post and Tunkara taking advantage, with a header, of his teammate’s assistance to decide the final.

Champion of the U16 category is FC Barcelona, who have won all the matches and have not conceded a single goal. After comfortably passing the group stage, it has eliminated PSG Academy Miami, BCN Sports Academy, FC Porto and RCD Espanyol.

The final of the U14 category has been decided in an exciting penalty shootout in favor of RCD Espanyol, after the match against FC Andorra ended with a tie on the scoreboard (1-1) once time had ended. regulatory.

An even and very lively duel until the last minute, when the tricolor team was able to balance their rival’s initial goal. Sergi Font was in charge of opening the scoring in the early stages of the first half, when he was left alone in front of the goalkeeper and beat him with a strong shot placed at his right post. The tie was narrowly missed just two minutes later with a subtle touch from Iker Duran, who was smarter than anyone and took advantage of his defender’s confusion to finish. The ball went out by very little. Before the break the second could have fallen for Espanyol with a shot from Unai Balmon that missed the target by centimeters.

The second act was also very balanced and although Espanyol had victory within reach, in the last breath Adrián Serrano equalized when he finished a quick attack by sending the ball far from the goalkeeper’s reach. Maximum excitement in the penalties until the decisive goal from Eloi Pedragosa, which decided the final for his team.

In this way, RCD Espanyol closes a MIC in which they have not lost a game and have only conceded one draw, in today’s final. First in their group, they have left the following rivals behind in the qualifying rounds: Vic Riuprimer Refo FC, CE Mercantil, the Mexican national team and FC Barcelona.

With a solitary goal from Guillermo Trujillano, the Atlético de Madrid cadet had enough to claim victory in the final of the U15 category that was played at the Vilatenim stadium in Figueres.

The Madrid team, coached by Borja Resurrección, brother of first team player Koke, narrowly defeated Villarreal CF and did so thanks to a goal that came in the 18th minute of the match. The final was quite balanced and although there were some dangerous chances in each goal, the scoreboard did not move any further.

Atlético de Madrid closes its participation in the MICFootball without having conceded a goal after 7 games and having scored 17. First in its group, it has left Kaptiva Sports Academy, Surf Puerto Rico and Shakhtar Donetsk behind in the qualifiers.
