There is just one goal gor Brazil, and is called "o tri". After conquering both previous title in Alcobendas/Torrejon de Ardoz and Fortaleza, the canarinhas are looking to revalidate their dominance on the worldwide stage.

Few weeks after their male colleagues claimed the 5th FIFA Futsal World Cup title in Bangkok, the women team will try to confirm the CBFS status as "house of futsal".

This time Vander Iacovino, due to personal commitments, won't sit on the national team bench, being replaced by world champion Pipoca.

Will Vanessa, Lucileia, Ju Delgado and mates hit again? The today debut against Iran will provide us with some indications.
