The Brava futsal team made its long-awaited debut in the Inter-Island Tournament with a performance that, despite not guaranteeing victory, demonstrated immense courage, dedication and potential. In the match against the São Vicente team, current champion of the tournament, Brava started the game with great determination, surprising everyone by taking the lead on the scoreboard twice throughout the match.
Despite the initial advantage and the strong competitive spirit demonstrated by the Brava team, São Vicente managed to equalize the score and, towards the end of the first half, took the lead, closing the first half with an advantage. In the second half, the Brava team returned to the field with an even more offensive stance, fighting intensely to recover the tie. Taking advantage of the five fouls committed by the opponent, Brava came close to equalizing the game, but a quickly called foul and a well-executed counterattack by the São Vicente team resulted in a goal that put the champions ahead 5-4.
In the final minutes, a lack of attention from Brava's defense allowed São Vicente to consolidate the victory, finishing the game with a score of 6 to 4. Even with this outcome, the Brava team showed that, with greater preparation and more time for tactical improvement, it has the potential to achieve significant results in high-level competitions.
It is important to highlight the performance of Dipo, Brava's goalkeeper, whose crucial saves throughout the 40 minutes kept the team's hope and confidence alive.
