Effectiveness in attack, consistent play and balance to withstand Australia’s intensity. The coach of the Brazilian women’s team, Arthur Elias, classified his team’s 3-1 victory this Thursday (28), in Brisbane, as an important step for the team to form a competitive team.
“I was happy because the team was able to withstand the intensity of the game, we did a good collective job and presented a consistent game. We created more goal chances with a great commitment from the players”, said the coach.
The duel against Australia was Brazil’s penultimate match in 2024. Given the exhaustion of being at the end of the season, the coach praised the athletes’ dedication.
“We played a good game using all the changes. We want to give opportunities to other names and we had some important absences due to injury. But I’m satisfied because Brazil has many young and talented athletes”, he commented.
With the priority of forming a competitive group aiming for the 2025 Copa América, the commander highlighted the importance of clashes with teams at the level of Australia. “My goal is to have all the athletes who have the knowledge and quality to wear the national team’s shirt. Regardless of the names, we have to put together a strong team.”
Brazil returns to the field next Sunday for its last match of the year. The game is scheduled for 5:45 am (Brasília time), at CBUS Stadium, in Gold Coast, and the opponent will once again be Australia.
