Vodafone Fiji Under 20 Soccer team has been drawn with Germany, Uzbekistan and Honduras in Group F for the FIFA Under 20 World Cup which will be played in New Zealand on the 30th May till 20th June this year.

Fiji face a demanding debut in the U-20 showpiece, with their first match against European champions Germany.

The Junior All Whites have been drawn in a group with Ukraine, USA and Myanmar 

The tournament will be the Junior All Whites' fourth appearance at the U20 World Cup and will be hoping to capitalise on their home ground advantage.

Arguably the pick of the sections drawn at the impressive SKYCITY Convention Centre was Group D, which places Mexico against 2013 runners-up Uruguay, Serbia and an as-yet undecided African opponent.

France is the defending champions beating Uruguay in the final 4-1 in penalty shoot-out which was held in Turkey in 2013.
