Because of this, ge outlined the Tricolor’s schedule for July.

Check it out below!

Before the ball starts rolling for points and qualification, the team coached by Luís Castro will play two final warm-up matches to build match fitness. The first friendly will be this Saturday in Mato Grosso, and the second will take place the following week in the federal capital.

The first official challenge is scheduled for July 17 against Mirassol in the interior of São Paulo — exactly two days before the World Cup final. Right after that match, the team will switch gears and travel to Bolivia, kicking off its continental showdown.
