Ana Vitória ruled out of Brazil opener under concussion protocol | OneFootball

Ana Vitória will miss Brazil’s Fifa Series opener against South Korea on Saturday, the Corinthians midfielder following concussion protocol after a head knock in Thursday training.

According to Fut Das Minas, imaging tests found no serious injury, yet she will not be named in the matchday squad.

She is one of five Corinthians players in the Brazil squad, alongside goalkeeper Lelê, defenders Thais Ferreira and Gi Fernandes, and midfielder Duda Sampaio. The window also includes Zambia and Canada at Arena Pantanal in Cuiabá.

Since rejoining Corinthians at the start of 2026, Ana Vitória has been called up twice. She started only once, a 2-1 friendly defeat to Venezuela on 4 March.

Elsewhere, midfielder Dayana Rodríguez is with Venezuela, while forwards Gisela Robledo and Belén Aquino are on duty for Colombia and Uruguay, so all three miss the Teal Rising Cup in the United States. Corinthians lost 2-1 to Kansas City Current on Thursday and now face Club América for third place on Sunday at 17:00 Brasília time at CPKC Stadium.
