Brazilian women facing their destiny
It is important to remember that Brazil will make their debut in the competition on July 24 against Panama, in Group F, which also includes Jamaica and France.
Led by Swedish Pia Sundhage since 2019, the Brazilian team will try to become the first South American team to win the precious title in international women’s competitions. In 2007, they came close to victory in their first final, but were defeated 2-0 by Germany. This time, they are aiming for the ultimate consecration.
