For the third game running, Tottenham Hotspur defender Timothy Eyoma started on the bench and entered into the fray in the 70th minute for his third appearance in the competition.
Rhian Brewster netted his fifth goal of the tournament and gave the Young Lions the lead in the tenth minute, Wesley equalized for the Brazilians on 21 minutes, before the Liverpool wonderkid restored their one-goal advantage six minutes before the interval.
It became 3-1 when Brewster smashed in at the back post for his seventh goal in the competition, he also bagged a hat-trick in the quarterfinal against the United States.
