The Brazil Women’s U-20 National Team kicked off the World Cup with a commanding win. This Saturday (5), the team coached by Camilla Orlando defeated Tanzania 4-1 in the opening round of the group stage. At Bielsko-Biała Stadium in Poland, Thay, Evelin (2), and Vitorinha found the net for the Canarinho. The coach reviewed the match, highlighting that Brazil improved significantly in the second half.

“We’re very happy to have started with a win. Obviously, everyone was very anxious for this match and felt it a little. We controlled the first half well, but we gave them one ball and they managed to score. At halftime, we talked about coming back out and doing what we had trained for, because the spaces were there. We made a few changes to give the team fresh energy and a new rhythm, and everything flowed well,” she said.

Evelin also shared her thoughts on the match. She was named player of the match and scored twice. The forward celebrated the victory and stressed that Camilla’s halftime talk was decisive in the rout.

“It was very important for us to come away with this win. I was a little nervous, but when I stepped onto the pitch I felt a bit calmer. We came out strong and focused, but we dropped off a little in the first half. After that, we listened to what Camilla had to say and, thank God, we got these three points. I’m very happy with my debut and to help my team,” she said.

Brazil will return to the field on Tuesday (8) for the second round of the World Cup group stage. The Canarinho will face Canada at 10 a.m. Brasília time at Bielsko-Biała Stadium.
