That's all from us here. Stay tuned for more as we bring the Spain vs Mali game in an hour's time. 

18:57 (IST)25 OCT 2017

It's full-time here at the Salt Lake Stadium and England have beaten Brazil to make it to the final. This is their best run at a FIFA U17 World Cup and the Young Lions will be back in Kolkata on Saturday for the final. What a game it was, and Rhian Brewster has certainly made the headlines.

18:54 (IST)25 OCT 2017

FT: Brazil 1-3 England

18:53 (IST)25 OCT 2017

90+4' We are into the final 90 seconds of the game as England are almost home here. 

18:51 (IST)25 OCT 2017

90+2' Yuri with a piledriver from range but Anderson is there to smother. Meanwhile, Hudson-Odoi charges up the other end of the pitch and hits a shot that is straight at Brazao.

18:49 (IST)25 OCT 2017

90+1' The game is petering out and we have 5 minutes of time added on.

18:47 (IST)25 OCT 2017

88' England are killing the game off here by keeping possession and recycling it well. Brazil are frustrated here as their World Cup adventure seems to be coming to an end.

18:46 (IST)25 OCT 2017

87' Foden OFF Kirby ON

18:44 (IST)25 OCT 2017

86' Alan OFF Rodrigo Nestor ON

Brazil make their final change.

18:43 (IST)25 OCT 2017

84' It's all a case of denying space and time to Brazil for England. The Young Lions are almost set up in a counterattacking shape now with the game all but done and dusted. What a difference that 2-goal cushion makes.

18:41 (IST)25 OCT 2017

81' Foden with an effort that just sails over the bar. England have been the better team today, no two ways about that and Foden and co are almost showing off now.

18:38 (IST)25 OCT 2017

What a tournament Brewster is having. He is surely taking home the Golden Boot after all but booting the Brazilians out of the World Cup with that third strike. 

18:37 (IST)25 OCT 2017

77' GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!

ENGLAND score their third goal and Brewster nets his hat-trick. It's his 2nd consecutive hat-trick as he gets in the right place to make the perfect connection to Smith-Rowe's cross.

18:35 (IST)25 OCT 2017

76' Brazil have been forcing their way forward but wayward balls into the box aren't helping their cause. England only have 14 more minutes to hold on to their advantage now.

18:32 (IST)25 OCT 2017

73' Alan with a fine defence-splitting pass that sets Lincoln free but Anderson spreads himself well as the Brazilian attacker once again fails to do his job done inside the box. The players head for another cooling break.

18:30 (IST)25 OCT 2017

71' Bobsin OFF Helio Junio ON

A flurry of changes here as Brazil make another.

18:29 (IST)25 OCT 2017

70' Sessegnon OFF Eyoma ON 

Another change for England.

18:28 (IST)25 OCT 2017

69' Weverson with another cross from the left but Guehi and Latibeaudiere have been impressive at the back all evening. It all came about after Antonio was found expertly by Bobsin with a line breaking pass through midfield.

18:26 (IST)25 OCT 2017

68' Gibbs-White OFF Smith-Rowe ON

England make a change here.

18:25 (IST)25 OCT 2017

66' Lincoln meets a delightful cross from Weverson but the ball is slightly behind the striker and he couldn't direct his header on target.

18:23 (IST)25 OCT 2017

64' Brazil have a go again and it's Paulinho again. The attacker's shot is straight at Anderson as England survive. The crowd is fully behind the trailing Brazilians as we enter the final quarter of the game.

18:22 (IST)25 OCT 2017

62' Hudson-Odoi and Foden take turns to run at the Brazil defence and it the latter who manages to take a shot. His effort is straight at Brazao and Brazil clear. Meanwhile, Paulinho leads the break for Brazil at the other end but his shot is well-saved by Anderson. It's been end to end in the past few minutes.

18:20 (IST)25 OCT 2017

62' Brenner OFF Yuri ON

Brazil make their 1st change.

18:19 (IST)25 OCT 2017

60' Brenner with an effort from the edge of the England box but his effort is again palmed away strongly by Anderson. That was perhaps the best chance for Brazil in the 2nd half.

18:17 (IST)25 OCT 2017

58' Halter with another block to a cross as England find spaces in the Brazil defensive third. They are primed to net their third here if the same pattern is maintained.

18:15 (IST)25 OCT 2017

56' Brenner gets booked for upending McEachren there and earns Brazil only their second yellow card of the tournament.

18:14 (IST)25 OCT 2017

55' England are all over Brazil at the moment as they are the first to every loose ball at the moment.

18:13 (IST)25 OCT 2017

54' Brewster with a chance to get his second hat-trick of the tournament but Hudson-Odoi's cross is misjudged by the forward as he heads the ball over with no one marking him.

18:10 (IST)25 OCT 2017

50' Antonio with an effort from range but Anderson gets a strong double-hand on it and Brazil get a corner. Can the Canarinhos force in another equaliser? Their corner is well-defended by Latibeaudiere and co there.

18:08 (IST)25 OCT 2017

48' Oakley-Boothe with a strong challenge to get the ball off the Brazilians in midfield but Foden's shot after Gibbs-White's pass through the centre for the winger is blocked by Vitao. England have had the better of the 2nd half so far.

18:06 (IST)25 OCT 2017

47' Foden makes a strong run into the Brazil penalty box but Bobsin makes an intervention as the Man City man runs out of steam as he approaches Brazao's goal. 

18:04 (IST)25 OCT 2017

46' England kick us off in the 2nd half.

17:51 (IST)25 OCT 2017

HT: Brazil 1-2 England

We head into the break here as Rhian Brewster's brace hands England the lead. The Liverpool man's brace sandwiched Wesley's equalising strike in what has been a cracking battle so far. The 2nd half kicks off in 15 minutes.

17:49 (IST)25 OCT 2017

45+3' Gibbs-White runs clear but his indecision inside the Brazil box allows Wesley to track back and block the cross. What a glorious opening that was for England after McEachren set him through.

17:47 (IST)25 OCT 2017

45+1' Brewster with crossing space now but he is blocked by Vitao there and England win a corner. Brazao in the Brazil goal makes a commanding intervention on the England corner as any danger there is averted.

17:46 (IST)25 OCT 2017

45+1' 3 minutes of time added on.

17:45 (IST)25 OCT 2017

45' Chance for Brazil as Paulinho swings in a delicious cross but Guehi is there to clear the ball. Brazil are done yet as Weverson crosses from the opposite flank and finds Lincoln's head but the attempt misses the target.

17:44 (IST)25 OCT 2017

43' England have been the team which is showing more desire on the pitch. Brenner and Foden involved here in a midfield duel in which the Manchester City man comes off better.

17:42 (IST)25 OCT 2017

41' England have dealt really well with the Brazilian threat since the equaliser and the red-hot Brewster needs just a little sniff to score nowadays. What a tournament it has been for him. That was his 6th goal at the FIFA U17 World Cup 2017.

17:40 (IST)25 OCT 2017

39' GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL ENGLAND!


Brewster gets on the end of Sessegnon's cutback from the right byeline and blasts the ball into an empty net as Brazao flaps in vain. England retake the lead here at the Salt Lake.

17:38 (IST)25 OCT 2017

38' England are really pressing now as they play the ball around the Brazil half. However, Brazil have put a solid defensive structure in place as the Young Lions fail to penetrate.

17:36 (IST)25 OCT 2017

36' Vitao with a big misjudgment and hands Brewster possession inside his own final third but the Liverpool man - not known for his finesse and needle play  - goes out of ideas in a 1-v-2 situation and Brazil recover.

17:35 (IST)25 OCT 2017

35' Brazil are suddenly on the break here as Sessegnon gift possession away but Latibeaudiere sticks tight to Alan and averts the danger.

17:34 (IST)25 OCT 2017

34' Foden has been trying to take on the entire Brazil defence on his own but Weverson has held well to keep things tight on his side of the defence.

17:32 (IST)25 OCT 2017

31' Oakley-Booth loses possession in the centre of the park to Alan who sets off on a counterattacking run but he is brought down by the England man. Oakley-Booth earns a booking and Brazil a freekick. Alan's effort from the set-piece is straight at Anderson and the Man City 'keeper nearly fumbles before gathering.

17:31 (IST)25 OCT 2017

30' WHAT A MISS FOR BRAZIL!

Brenner is set free by Vitao with a direct ball up front but the forward completely fluffs his lines as he confronts Anderson. That was Brazil's chance to complete the comeback but what a miss!

17:29 (IST)25 OCT 2017

29' Hudson-Odoi with a strong run on the left flank but Wesley sticks to his job to not allow the winger's cross into Brewster's feet. England have a corner and Latibeaudiere heads it to the ground and the ball bounces over the Brazil goal. THAT WAS A CHANCE for England there to retake their lead.

17:28 (IST)25 OCT 2017

28' Brazil have sat back a bit after scoring the equaliser. The intensity they showed after going behind was another level and unsustainable, and England slowly take control of proceedings.

17:27 (IST)25 OCT 2017

26' What a great game this is shaping up to be. Early goals have been seen, now some more goalmouth action is what the fans need in what promises to be a thriller of a football match. The players, meanwhile, take a short cooling break. Brewster and Wesley have got on the scoresheet so far as the scoreline reads Brazil 1-1 England.

17:25 (IST)25 OCT 2017

24' Foden with some trickery of his own as he tries to jink past Weverson from the right wing. The Brazil left-back holds his ground well and concedes a corner, which is subsequently wasted by the Young Lions.
