The São Paulo team continues its strong campaign in the Brazilian Women’s Championship. Up to the sixth round of the competition, São Paulo has secured five wins, with nine goals scored and only four conceded. With these numbers, Tricolor boasts the best defense in the tournament.
Carlinha, São Paulo’s goalkeeper, spoke about the team’s defensive consistency during matches and also credited coach Thiago Viana for the results:
“I think it really has Viana’s stamp on it. Over the last three years, we’ve always been among the three best defenses. That shows the consistency of our work over the years, regardless of who comes in and who leaves,” said the player.
Having worn the Tricolor jersey for seven years, Carlinha also said that the communication she maintains with the team helps them achieve strong performances.
“I believe it comes a lot from communication. I’m a goalkeeper who communicates a lot, I’m always talking, calling out the plays. I understand the game very well tactically, so I think that makes things easier,” she concluded.
On 04/20, Tricolor returns to the field against Grêmio at 7 p.m. in Cotia, for the seventh round of the Brasileirão. Admission will be free for fans, and the match will be broadcast on SporTV.
