The second-to-last day at the 2015 U20 Worlds of Rink Hockey in Vilanova, Spain, was dedicated to the classification games and the semi finals of the tournament. Despite a historical game, the French team didn’t manage to beat the Spanish world vice-champions. Spain will meet their portuguese neighbors for a game at the top, gathering the two most successful nations of the U20 category…
Since the creation of the competition in 1953, Spain won the title 23 times and Portugal 18. But we should take into account that Portugal won the 4 previous editions! They start as favorites, all the more as Spain’s forces are blunted after their game against France.
For the French, the small final will have a taste of revenge after the Italian affront (9 – 2) during the last group game. The game should be tight!
