Alright so I spent all morning digging into how Brazil’s U20 women’s team did lately. First off, I opened my phone and straight up googled “Brazil U20 women latest results” – total rookie move, I know. Got flooded with sketchy betting sites and outdated news from like 2023. Finally remembered FIFA might have actual info.
Scrolled through FIFA’s site, fingers kinda sticky from coffee spills. Found this August 2024 tournament in Colombia they played. Boom! Group stage was wild – 14 goals scored, zero conceded? Insane! Highlight reel stuff against weaker teams. Then reality hit during knockout phase.
- Saw Cameroon made them sweat bullets: Extra time nail-biter just to survive that match. My neighbor probably heard me yell when that winning goal went in.
- Quarterfinals against North Korea? Different story. Felt like watching a truck hit a wall. Brazil barely touched the ball. That 1-0 loss had me slumping on my couch.
Checked their roster afterward. Star player Natalia Wendt? Scored like 5 times – absolute machine. Funny thing though, remembered Ana Flávia was supposed to play but got injured last minute. Bet that hurt their chances.
Switched tabs to recent stuff. Found February 2025 tournament update. Brazil vs Colombia again – 1-0 win! But the details? Far from pretty. Player named Teodoro saved their butts with a header. Defense looked shaky as hell, like they forgot how to clear balls. Colombian strikers wasted sitters – Brazil got seriously lucky.
Biggest takeaway? These girls are confusing. One minute scoring 14 goals, next minute barely surviving Cameroon. Then getting schooled by North Korea? They need consistency if they wanna actually win big trophies. Senior team did it recently in Copa América – why not these girls?
Gotta say, digging through match stats felt like solving a mystery with half the clues missing. Makes you respect what those players actually pull off on the field.
