The FIFA U-17 World Cup 2017 will kick off with Colombia facing off against Ghana in the opening match. 

Colombia have never won a World Cup at either U-17 or senior level while Ghana are two-time world champions at the U-17 level, taking home the trophy in 1991 and 1995.

The Colombia FIFA U-17 World Cup team have reached the semi-finals of the tournament twice, losing the third place play-off to Argentina in 2003 and Spain in 2009.

Ghana never once finished outside the top-3 in every FIFA U-17 World Cups held during the 1990s.

However, ahead of the start of the tournament, both sides are focusing on the present and not on their past.
