A Brazilian Team women was defeated in the second round of the She Believes Cup, this Sunday. Against Canada, at GEODIS Park, in the United States, Brazil was unable to hold the Canadians and lost by 2-0.
The Brazilians will have a great challenge ahead. On Wednesday, they face the leaders and current champions of the tournament, United States national team. To have chances of being champion, Brazil needs to win and eliminate the difference in goals, which is four goals. Also, it depends on the outcome of Canada’s next game.
The Canadians face Japan, which has no chance of title, also on Wednesday. Canada depends on the result of the Brazil game and can only be champion if the United States does not score.

The goals of the match came out in Brazilian failures. In the 25th minute of the first half, the team’s defense tried to clear a ball in the middle of the area, but ended up putting it at the foot of Gilles. The attacker took advantage of the opportunity and hit Lorena’s right corner, 1-0.
Canada extended the advantage at 30 of the second half. After a corner kick from the right, Viens climbed the first post to head it in. Defender Lauren, who would go up to dispute the ball, ended up slipping and couldn’t get off the ground. Without an appointment, the touch of the Canadian left no chance for Lorena to defend.
