Women’s team to face USA twice in June: Neo Química Arena, Castelão
Women’s team to face USA twice in June: Neo Química Arena, Castelão As another step in preparations for the 2027 World Cup, the Brazilian Women’s National Team will play two friendlies in June against the USA. The first match will be on June 6 at Neo Química Arena in São Paulo. The other will be on June 9 at Castelão in Fortaleza.
Both venues will host World Cup matches. At present, the United States are ranked second in the FIFA rankings. Brazil are sixth.
The matches will mark the return of the U. S. national team to Brazil — the last time was in 2014.
The American team has not yet secured a place at the World Cup. They need to qualify through a Concacaf competition that will be played later this year. Brazil and the USA have already faced each other six times on Brazilian soil, with two wins for each side and two draws.
“They will be two very important matches for our growth. The USA have an excellent team with many high-level players. Historically, they are the most successful national team, and their record against Brazil is very favorable.
