Free entry in Santo André as Sereias da Vila return v Taubaté Friday (17) | OneFootball

The Sereias da Vila return to the pitch this Friday (17), after the pause in women’s football competitions due to the men’s Football World Cup. Santos FC will face Taubaté at 9 p.m. in the fourth round of the Campeonato Paulista.

The match will be hosted by Santos, with free admission at Bruno José Daniel Stadium in Santo André (SP). Santos FC fans can enter through the East stand (Gate J), while visiting supporters must use the West stand (Gate F).

Defender Ingryd Avancini reflected on the work done by Alvinegro Praiano’s women’s football team during this mid-season break. After a short rest period, coach Marcelo Frigerio’s squad kept training at CT Rei Pelé and played a practice match against the Brazil Under-17 national team in preparation for the return of competitions.

“This break was important for us to align a few points and make some adjustments we needed in order to maximize the qualities of our squad, which is very good. We know we have what it takes to achieve our goals,” said Ingryd.

In the second half of 2026, the Sereias da Vila remain in contention in the Paulista and Brazilian championships, aiming to qualify for the knockout stage in both competitions.

“It was an important period of training, guidance from the coaching staff, and great commitment from the group. I have no doubt that we’ll come back better adjusted and with improved performances from the whole team,” added the Sereias da Vila defender.
