NEW DELHI: Striker Yassir Zabrini scored twice as Morocco won its first Under-20 World Cup title with a 2-0 victory over Argentina. Zabrini scored in the 12th and 29th minutes of the final on Sunday to help Morocco become the first African nation to win the U20 title since Ghana in 2009. Morocco topped its group against Spain, Brazil and Mexico and then advanced over South Korea, the United States and France in the knockout stages.
