The '''2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup''' was the 17th [[FIFA U-17 World Cup]], a biennial international [[association football|football]] tournament contested by men's under-17 national teams. Organised by [[FIFA]], the tournament took place in [[India]] from 6 to  28 October 2017, after the country was awarded the hosting rights on 5 December 2013. The tournament marked the first time India hosted a FIFA tournament and the fifth Asian country to host U-17 World Cup after China in [[1985 FIFA U-16 World Championship|1985]], Japan in [[1993 FIFA U-17 World Championship|1993]], South Korea in [[2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup|2007]] and United Arab Emirates in [[2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup|2013]]. The attendance for this World Cup was a record 1,347,133, surpassing China's record in [[1985 FIFA U-16 World Championship|1985]] with 1,230,976.

The matches were played in [[#Venues|six stadiums]] in six host cities around the country, with the final taking place at the [[Salt Lake Stadium]] in [[Kolkata]]. Twenty-three teams, besides the host India, managed to qualify for the tournament via participating in their various continental under-17 tournaments. In the [[#Group stage|first round]] of the tournament finals, the teams competed in [[Round-robin tournament|round-robin]] groups of four for points, where the top two teams in each group along with the top four third placed teams would advance to the next round. These 16 teams will advance to the [[#Knockout stage|knockout stage]], where three rounds of play decided which teams would participate in the final.

==Knockout stage==
In the knockout stages, if a match is level at the end of normal playing time, the match is determined by a [[Penalty shoot-out (association football)|penalty shoot-out]] (no [[Overtime (sports)#Association football|extra time]] is played).<ref name="regulations"/>

In the round of 16, the four third-placed teams were matched with the winners of groups A, B, C, and D. The specific match-ups involving the third-placed teams depend on which four third-placed teams qualified for the round of 16:<ref name="regulations"/>

First and foremost, the fans have filled the stadiums in all the matches, showing fair play and respect, cheering on all the teams, and really loving the football they have seen. The figures speak for themselves: more than 1.2 million fans attended games at the stadiums. By the final matchday, we’re probably going to break the [attendance] record of all the other U-17 World Cups and we might even break the record for the U-20 World Cup, which is an amazing achievement. It really shows that India is a footballing nation in every sense. The hard work put in place during so many years has received a great response from everybody. It has been a very proud moment for all of us."<ref>{{cite web|title=India 2017 hailed as a fantastic tournament|url=https://www.fifa.com/u17worldcup/news/y=2017/m=10/news=india-2017-hailed-as-a-fantastic-tournament-2917676.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171026190417/http://www.fifa.com/u17worldcup/news/y=2017/m=10/news=india-2017-hailed-as-a-fantastic-tournament-2917676.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=26 October 2017|website=FIFA.com|access-date=17 February 2018|date=26 October 2017}}</ref>
