The opening matches of Group E and Group F of the FIFA U-17 World Cup Indonesia 2023™ get under way on 12 November.

France and Burkina Faso – who both reached the U-17 podium in the 2001 tournament in Trinidad and Tobago – kickstart the matchday, along with Venezuela’s bout with New Zealand in Bandung.

Korea Republic then face a USA side who will begin their 18th U-17 World Cup campaign – a number only Brazil can match – at Jakarta International Stadium. Elsewhere, two-time champions Mexico take on Germany in a mouth-watering Bandung match-up.
