Overall team records

In this ranking 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for a loss. As per statistical convention in football, matches decided in extra time are counted as wins and losses, while matches decided by penalty shoot-outs are counted as draws. Teams are ranked by total points, then by goal difference, then by goals scored.[5]

As of 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Awards

At the end of each FIFA U-20 World Cup tournament, several awards are presented to the players and teams which have distinguished themselves in various aspects of the game.

There are four awards:

  • the Golden Ball (commercially termed "adidas Golden Ball") for best player assigned by members of the media;
  • the Golden Boot (commercially termed "adidas Golden Boot" for best scorer;
  • the Golden Glove Award (commercially termed "adidas Golden Glove" for the best goalkeeper assigned since 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup;
