Pati Maldaner: Palmeiras women back for tough Paulistão clash

Palmeiras returns to the field this Friday (31) to face Red Bull Bragantino in the Campeonato Paulista. The alviverde team is currently in second place in the competition and is looking to maintain its good form in this final stretch of the group stage, aiming for a top spot in the standings.

The defender for the Palestrinas, Pati Maldaner, highlighted the importance of the break in competitions, which allowed the team to absorb the ideas of the new coach Rosana Augusto and fine-tune important details for the decisive matches.

“It was an important period for us to adjust to Rosana’s new ideas. We haven’t had much time with her, but I believe we’ve already managed to take in the information well. In this final stretch, where every match is important, it requires extra focus from the team, so every day in training we are focused on adjusting the details as quickly as possible,” emphasized Pati.

During the championship break, due to the CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina and the friendlies on the FIFA Date, Verdão competed in and won the Brasil Ladies Cup for the first time in its history.

Focused on the final stretch of the first phase, Pati also looked ahead to the clash against Red Bull Bragantino, highlighting the group’s concentration and commitment to remain strong in the pursuit of qualification.

“We know how important it is to qualify well for the final stages. Our focus and goal is to win every match and secure this qualification. The matches against Red Bull Bragantino are always tough, it’s an opponent that demands a lot from us, both defensively and offensively, and since both teams know how important the three points are, it’s going to be a hard-fought game from start to finish.”

The Palestrinas are in second place with 22 points from 10 matches. In total, they have seven wins, one draw, two losses, 22 goals scored, and eight conceded. In the previous round, the team defeated São Paulo 3-0, with goals from Brena Carolina (twice) and Amanda Gutierres.
