The Brazil U-15 National Team began another stage of its preparations this Wednesday (13) at Granja Comary, in Teresópolis, Rio de Janeiro. With all 25 called-up players together, the team coached by Guilherme Dalla Déa held its first training session with an eye on the two friendlies against Uruguay.
The session included physical and technical activities. It was the group’s first time on the field during this call-up and marked the start of the preparation routine ahead of the international fixtures. The coaching staff used the session to observe the players and take the first steps in the work that will be carried out throughout the week.
The friendlies against Uruguay are part of the planning for the Liga Evolución, the continental competition for the age group that will be played in September. The matches also represent an opportunity for the coaching staff to monitor the players’ development in match situations and assess the team’s behavior against a traditional South American opponent.
This stage of preparation comes after two good results against Chile in July. In Santiago, Brazil won the first friendly 8-1 and then beat the home side again in the second match, 4-2.
This week, Granja Comary is hosting two Brazilian youth national teams. The U-17 National Team is also in Teresópolis, where it is preparing for friendlies against Venezuela. The teams being there at the same time is part of the CBF’s plan to bring its youth national teams closer together.
Brazil U-15’s next match will be against Uruguay on Wednesday (19) at 11 a.m. The second friendly is scheduled for Saturday (22) at 10 a.m. Both matches will be played at Granja Comary.
