Spain 0 - 2 Brazil
The final matched up Brazil against Spain, in what was predicted to be quite a tight affair. Spain, who were yet to concede a goal in the tournament and had won every game on their way to the final, were going to have to be at their best defensively to stop a Brazil side that boasted two of the tournaments biggest talents, Ricardo Alves and the player of the tournament Jeferson Goncalves.

Third Place Playoff
China 1 - 0 England
The first game of the last day saw the clash for third place in the tournament between England and China. The game got off to a good start for England with Jonathan Gribbin and David Clarke both having chances to give them an early lead, but the Lei Niu saved well on both occasions. The England defence was well marshalled by Will Norman and they limited China to only speculative long range efforts which didn't trouble Skyres in goal.
Thumbs up if you searched this video after watching Jimmy Carr's Glasgow DVD.

"This was the highest they've ever reached in a tournament, and they had the medal IN THEIR SIGHT!"
I fucking hope that pun was intentional!
