Brazilian Women’s Team Beats China 3-0 in Training Game: Updates and Injury Concerns

The Brazilian women’s team beat China 3-0 this Thursday, in a training game held behind closed doors in Gold Coast, on the east coast of Australia. The activity was held at the hotel where Brazil is staying, a place that is also used as a training center by the delegation. The goals were scored by Kathellen, Rafaelle and Luana.

Five players were spared and did not participate in the activity. Marta and Bia are in the process of preservation due to overload, but the technical committee is not concerned. The same happened with Tainara, also absent. Geyse did not participate due to back pain. The biggest concern is in relation to Nycole, who again was not in a collective tactical activity. The attacker suffered a sprain in her right ankle in the friendly against Chile on July 2nd, and since then she has not been able to participate normally in training.

Among the tests were Angelina and Aline Gomes, who, according to ge’s assessment, had a good performance in the training game, which was divided into three halves of 30 minutes. The two players are part of the list of substitutes, as well as Tainara. If Nycole doesn’t recover, they could be an option.

For the change of names on the final list, Brazil would need to clinically prove to FIFA that the Benfica player has an injury and would not be able to recover. The deadline is until the eve of the debut in the competition, which takes place on July 24, against Panama, in Adelaide. The other opponents in Group F will be France (29th, in Brisbane) and Jamaica (August 2nd, in Melbourne). China will also compete in the World Cup, and is in Group D, with Denmark, Haiti and England.
