Man City wonderkid gives Brazil a taste of their own medicine in the Under 17 World Cup as Joel Ndala showcases his talents for the Young Lions in hard-fought defeat

Manchester City are at it again. Six years on from Phil Foden showcasing his talents when England won the Under 17 World Cup in India, Joel Ndala is the name worth noting as the Young Lions played the final group game of this edition in Indonesia.

England lost 2-1 against a Brazil team that, unlike them, had not yet secured qualification for the knockout stages.

Yet the beauty of this tournament is it guarantees a glimpse into the future of English football regardless of the result and, unfortunately for their Premier League rivals, yesterday’s positivity came from those belonging to the City stable.
