Steve Cooper, who came to Saturday’s media conference with the World Cup, and Santiago Denia, who couldn’t, agreed that Rhian Brewster’s goal had a telling effect on the final of this Fifa under-17 World Cup. “Their first goal really hurt us,” said Denia, the Spain coach. ‘Good work being done in England’Fittingly after the final flourish, Cooper again spoke about the development work in England which doesn’t really show in the Premiership. “This trophy is dedicated to the good work being done in England, the academies and the young players being developed. To think of we are the holders of the under-17 and under-20 World Cup is, for me, pretty special,” said Cooper.
