Encyclopedia
Chile national U-20 football team, also known as Chile
Sub-20 or La Rojita, is part of the Federación de Fútbol de Chile
. The U-20 team is considered to be the breeding ground for future Chile national soccer team players. The Chile U-20 national team has participated in five U-20 World Cups Chile 1987
, Qatar 1995
, Argentina 2001
, Netherlands 2005
, and Canada 2007.
One of the best and earliest U-20 World Cup campaigns was when Chile hosted the tournament in 1987, finishing in fourth place. In the most recent 2007 U-20 World Cup the team earned a third place position, making it Chile's most successful U-20 campaign to date.

, and late game substitute Jaime Grondona.
The second match was against the African youth champions Congo in Edmonton. Chile soundly defeated a 10 man squad with a score of 3-0, goals coming from striker Alexis Sanchez
, Medina, and Arturo Vidal
.
The third game was against Austria where after 90 minutes the game ended in scoreless 0-0, the result was enough for Chile to clinch the first spot of the group. In the Second Round Chile went up against Portugal who had qualified as third of their group. Chile with a goal from Vidal in the 45th minute of first half secured a pass onto the Quarter-Final.
The Quarter-Final included Nigeria
where after a scoreless 90 minutes the game was to be decided in extra time. Within the next final thirty minutes of the match Chile would win 4-0 with finishes coming off a header from Jaime Grondona, a penalty kick by Mauricio Islas after Chilean player Vidangossy was brought down in the box. A deadly counter strike finish from Isla's in the 117th minute, and a late finisher from Mathias Vidangossy
after rounding the keeper in 120+.
The Semi-Final against Argentina
proved controversial where the referre in charge Wolfgang Stark
would send off two Chilean players Dagoberto Currimilla and Gary Medel
. Playing with 9 men proved drastic, Chile would go on to lose 3-0 and chances of reaching the Final were shattered.
The third place spot brought a familiar opponent group A rivals Austria. The match was a consolation prize for the teams in dispute and a meritable reward after a hard fought campaign. Both countries would initiate great plays. One goal was enough with Chile's defender Hans Martinez hitting the ball past the GK and onto the net from a free kick cross ending the match 1-0.
The (GK) Christopher Toselli made the record of 492 minutes without conceding a goal and ultimately overcoming the old record of 484 minutes which was held by U-20 Brazilian (GK) Claudio Taffarel
since the World Cup of 1985.
Sanchez, Vidangossy, Vidal, Cristian Suarez and Toselli were main candidates to be the best players of the tournament.
