We managed to win the game by a comfortable margin, making a good rotation of the players and also thinking that tomorrow, Sunday, we have a game theoretically but difficult, especially if we consider the aggressive defense we will find." "Although we have recorded a very low percentage of field releases, even abnormal for our team, we are satisfied with the overall performance of the group and particularly pleased by the best interplay in the defensive and offensive system of our American player Ashley Bruner, a player who will grow huge on this team. On the other hand, a pleasant surprise in the quality of the game of young Leonor Nunes, who demonstrated that, despite her tender age, she is justifying the call to the senior team." "On Sunday, with Santo André, we will have a very different game, against a very organized team that makes its aggressive defense and its game based on the blockades its main feature. We respect the opponent immensely, but we are very motivated to achieve our fourth consecutive victory in this regular phase of the Women's League."
