Spain beats Ghana to reach U-17 World Cup final

Thursday, 6 September 2007


ULSAN, South Korea, Sept 5 (AP): Spain reached the final of the Under-17 World Cup with a dramatic 2-1 win over Ghana Wednesday. Spain's star playmaker Bojan Krkic scored the winning goal four minutes from the end of the second period of extra time, and then was sent off for two yellow card offences in the dying moments.
The sending off means Bojan will miss the final, which will be played Sunday against the winner of Thursday's semifinal between Nigeria and Germany.
