Letícia Izidoro on friendly against Mexico: It will be a great match | OneFootball

The Brazilian National Team will face its last challenge of this FIFA Date on Saturday (7), against Mexico. Before Brazil’s final training session, which took place at the venue of the friendly, Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes in Mexico City, goalkeeper Letícia Izidoro shared her expectations for the match.

“It will be a very tough game, especially because Mexico is a very qualified team, and there aren’t many changes in terms of players, so they know each other very well. It will be a great match, and the Brazilian National Team has one more friendly to make the most of in order to arrive well-prepared for next year’s World Cup,” she said.

The team, led by coach Arthur Elias, has been in training camp since February 22 and has already played two friendlies, against Costa Rica and Venezuela. Letícia reflected on the training period and highlighted the importance of these tests with an eye on the 2027 World Cup, which will be hosted in Brazil.

“It was a good period, a slightly longer one, in which Arthur was able to observe more players, some of them in their first call-up. I think that’s the most important thing. The more we can make the most of the players we have, the better prepared we’ll be when it comes time to finalize the squad for the World Cup, so we’ll have a very qualified team.”

“It’s a very happy moment. It had really been a while since I’d returned to the National Team, but I think everything is a process. Now, what I can do is make the most of every opportunity I have, both here and at my club, and live this in the best way possible.”

Brazil and Mexico face each other on Saturday (7), at 8 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes in Mexico City. The match will be broadcast live on SporTV and ge TV (YouTube).
