Wikipedia - Guatemala national under-20 football team
The Guatemala national Under-20 football team is the national under-20 age level football team of Guatemala, and represents the nation in under-20 international matches.
The team has qualified to the FIFA U-20 World Cup twice, in 2011 and 2023. It finished in the top 4 of the CONCACAF region at the 2011 CONCACAF U-20 Championship, earning the first participation in a World Cup finals tournament at any level for Guatemala.
History
At the 2011 CONCACAF U-20 Championship held in Guatemala City in March and April 2011, Guatemala advanced to the second round as second of a 3-team series which included Honduras and Jamaica. Guatemala then played a direct elimination quarterfinal match against the United States, and won 2-1 which secured a place in the top four and thus participation in the 2011 U-20 World Cup. The result was considered a significant upset by the international news media as the United States was one of the strongest teams in CONCACAF.
2011 U-20 World Cup
Guatemala was drawn into Group D of the tournament along Nigeria, Croatia, and Saudi Arabia. Their debut match was a 0-5 loss against Nigeria. Following a 6-0 loss to Saudi Arabia, Guatemala defeated Croatia 1-0 to advance to the Round of 16, where they were eliminated by losing 0-1 to Portugal.
2023 U-20 World Cup
Groups were drawn for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup in April 2023, and Guatemala was placed in Group A alongside New Zealand, Uzbekistan, and Argentina. Guatemala's first match was a 1–0 loss to New Zealand, followed by a 3–0 loss to Argentina. In their final match of the group stage, Uzbekistan defeated Guatemala 2–0, which resulted in Guatemala's elimination from the tournament.
The team is governed by the Federación Nacional de Fútbol de Guatemala (FENAFUT), which is responsible for nurturing and promoting the sport at all levels. The Guatemala U20 squad competes in various tournaments, including the CONCACAF U20 Championship, where they aim to showcase their skills and compete against some of the best young teams in the region.
