“It's always good to start a competition with a win. It gives us more confidence for the rest of the competition. I want to highlight how determined the team was, the unity of the group, and that we never let our guard down. We built the score goal by goal. I'm very happy to be here in this superstructure of the Paraíba World Beach Games,” commented Rodrigo, the pivot and captain of the Brazilian Beach Soccer Team.
