The coach Pia Sundhage summoned this Tuesday (1st) the players of Brazil for the International Tournament of France. Marta, 35, continues to be part of the women’s soccer team, which has the Copa América as its main objective this season.
The competition is scheduled for July, in Colombia, and serves as a qualifier for the 2023 World Cup – there are three spots for South America in the dispute, which will take place in Australia and New Zealand. Until then, the coach wants to see the team facing strong opponents.
In the Tournament of France, which will be held between the 14th and 23rd of this month, Brazil will face France, Holland and Finland. The green-yellow team’s matches will be played at the Michel D’Ormano stadium in Caen.
“It’s an excellent opportunity, very important. We’re going to face high-level teams, and this will help us to seek qualification for the World Cup”, said Pia, who will have to deal with a difficulty: the athletes who work in Brazil and in the United States are on vacation.
“It’s difficult, but that’s how it is. Antônia is in the middle of the season, for example, and Debinha hasn’t even started. It’s likely that we’ll have more players from European clubs in the first game, because they don’t have to deal with so much jetlag”, said the coach. swedish
Ten of the athletes summoned work in Brazil, and four play in the United States. The other nine defend clubs in Europe and are active.
