We will never forget this match: Brewster
Kolkata, Oct 29 (IANS) England’s Golden Boot winner Rhian Brewster said the maiden FIFA U-17 World Cup win will be etched in his memory forever.
“The fact remains that we believed in ourselves firmly and could achieve the target. We will play the game for many years now and will never forget this moment,” said Brewster who scored England’s first goal after Spain’s Sergio Gomez had given them a 2-0 lead inside the first 31 minutes.
Brewster echoed his coach Steve Cooper, saying they were never under pressure even after being 2-0 in the dumps.
“Yes, we did not panic at the half time. We were confident of coming back even though we were 0-2 down. The first goal was extremely important for us,” said the top-scorer of the tournament who got the Golden Boot for his eight goals.
Cooper had also asserted that they never panicked.
“It’s easy to say this now. I really did not think there was real panic. We should have scored in the first minute was it? We the ones who took the initiative… we pressed a lot higher and played forward a lot more,” Cooper said.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
