Brazil triumphed 2-0 against Mali to end their FIFA U-17 World Cup campaign as the third-placed team in the play-off held at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Saturday.
Two second-half strikes from Alan and substitute Yuri Alberto helped the Brazilians seal the game, which was nowhere near one-sided.
Selecao coach Carlos Amadeu fielded an unchanged starting XI from their semifinal match. The team lined up in a 4-1-4-1 formation.
Jonas Komla, on the other hand, made two changes. Skipper Mohamed Camara returned to the first XI after suspension, replacing Oumar Doucoure. Mamadi Fofana made his way into the team replacing Abdoulaye Diaby, who had conceded the first penalty against Spain.
