Cris Gambaré and Camilla Orlando closely followed Brazil’s title-winning campaign at the South American Women’s U-17 Championship on Saturday night (9). Speaking directly from Defensores del Chaco Stadium in Asunción, Paraguay, the CBF Women’s National Teams coordinator and the Women’s U-20 National Team head coach congratulated the Young Canaries on their triumph under coach Rilany Silva.

“I feel very proud of the work being done by the CBF, this integration between the coaching staffs bringing another title. I can only say that we are on the right path, the staff did an impeccable job, and the players dedicated themselves a lot to the tournament. I believe we still have a lot more to achieve", said Cris Gambaré.

“I was very happy to be able to come because it is very important for us to stay connected. We grow stronger as coaches, we grow stronger as the Brazil national team, and we grow stronger with the idea of what we want to build and bring to the senior team. It was a great match, and it was very important for me to see the title won against a great opponent", said Camilla Orlando.

Brazil went unbeaten in the South American Championship, with five wins and one draw. Winning their sixth title marks coach Rilany Silva’s first trophy in charge of the Brazil national team.
