Small write-up on some of the players from nations New Zealand faced at the 2015 U-20 World Cup:
The USA's starting goalkeeper, Zack Steffen, just signed for Manchester City and is expected to be second-choice goalkeeper in the coming seasons. Is now comfortably USA's number 1. Kellyn Acosta is key in Anthony Hudson's midfield at Colorado.
Myanmar's Aung Thu, who scored against us in our 5-1 win, is considered one of the nation's best ever players, and is expected to move to the J-League in an unprecedented move for any Myanmarese player.
Four current internationals featured in Portugal's squad; Andre Silva played against us with the U-20s in 2015, as well as for the senior team in the Confederations Cup where he scored against us. Gelson Martins, who scored the winning goal in the dying minutes to beat us 2-1, now has 21 caps and stars for Atletico Madrid.
Probably the best players right now who competed at the tournament were Sergej Milinković-Savić, Gabriel Jesus, Davinson Sanchez and Julian Brandt, all of whom currently star at massive clubs and are among the best players of their nation.
