RIO DE JANEIRO: Adding U.S. mental strength and Swedish organisation to Brazilian talent and flair is a promising recipe for future success, the new coach of the Brazil women’s team said on Tuesday.
"I’d add the American mentality, they don’t play 90 minutes, they play 92 minutes," Sundhage said."Even though they have the biggest egos, they have the best players. I want that to be contagious. Sundhage, who quit as a coach at the Swedish FA to come to Brazil, is one of the most experienced in women’s football, having led the United States to Olympic gold in 2008 and 2012 and her native Sweden to the silver medal in Rio de Janeiro in 2016.In replacing former coach Vadao, who was removed after Brazil were knocked out the World Cup in the last-16 stage last month, Sundhage became the second woman to lead Brazil’s women's squad.
