The first finalist of the World Youth Championship was determined.
Venezuelans were on the verge of relegation from the tournament, but already in extra time to the second half managed to win back a right after the break goal from the penalty spot.
In the series of post-match penalty shots, the Venezuelan goalkeeper guessed the direction of the first three hits, but only one.
His counterpart, on the contrary, jumped all the wrong angles, but the crossbar after the strike of Sotaledo gave the Uruguayans a chance. But they did not take advantage of it, the captain of the Uruguayan national team Nelson De La Cruz, who became the author of the scoring goal in the regular time of the match, failed to outplay the Venezuelan goalkeeper.
