The Argentina U20 national team lost 2-0 against Morocco in the U20 World Cup final.

Diego Placente’s team did not trail the entire U20 World Cup but let in two early goals. Santino Barbi fouled just outside of the penalty area and it was a free kick for Morocco.

Going to Barbi’s side, Yassir Zabiri would score the free kick for the 1-0 lead. Argentina were awarded a free kick minutes later but Carrizo’s effort went wide.

With Morocco leading 1-0, they had a run down their right side and a cross which found Yassir Zabiri and he scored Morocco’s second goal of the match. Mateo Silvetti was substituted in for Valentino Acuña.

Milton Delgado played a pass in to Silvetti who made a run into the penalty area but his effort went wide. Moments after that, Morocco had an effort on goal which was cleared by Villalba.

Argentina would see a lot of the ball but the final ball in attack was not there as they were unable to score.
