Argentina set up Morocco showdown in historic U-20 World Cup final
Argentina booked their place in the FIFA U-20 World Cup final after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Colombia, setting up a mouth-watering title clash against Morocco, who stunned France in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Half-time substitute Mateo Silvetti emerged as Argentina's hero, scoring the decisive goal in the 72nd minute to send the Young Albiceleste into their first final since 2007. The Inter Miami forward — a teammate of Lionel Messi — coolly guided Gianluca Prestianni's clever pass past Colombian goalkeeper Jordan Garcia with the outside of his boot.
In a tense opening half, Colombia's Juan Arizala came closest to breaking the deadlock, flashing a shot narrowly wide in the 42nd minute. The second half, however, turned into an end-to-end battle, with both sides creating chances. Argentina goalkeeper Santino Barbi was in inspired form, denying Arizala's header with a fingertip save before defender Tobias Ramirez made a vital intervention to stop Emilio Aristizabal from scoring.
Colombia's hopes faded when Jhon Renteria was sent off for a second booking after bringing down Dylan Gorosito. Argentina held firm to seal their eighth appearance in the final, having previously won the competition a record six times.
