Brazil Women Team Squad Roster For 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup
Being six times champions of Copa America out of seven editions, they are yet not the strong contenders to win this title. The presence of United States and Germany could make their journey more difficult. They are good against small teams, but when they play against some big giants like Japan, Germany, France and USA, they lags behind with huge difference.
If you have seen football in 80s, Brazil women’s football team was struggling at international level. In the year of 1986, they managed just three wins out of 32 games. If you are Brazil fan, then you would not like to see their head to head results verses Germany as they managed to win just one time out of 11 international meetings.
