“We’re studying our opponents a lot. It’s game by game, point by point, all with a lot of preparation and work,’ said Tania who also revealed the team is ready for the game against Nigeria.

‘We are working very and off the field to play good matches and get the points we need to advance in the competition,’ she told the official website of the Brazil Football Federation.
