Brazil and Bolivia face off in Matchday 2 of Group B at the CONMEBOL Copa América Femenina 2025™
  • This will be the fifth Brazil vs. Bolivia match in the history of the competition.
  • Canarinha could take the provisional lead in the group.

Group Stage action continues on Wednesday, July 16, with the matchup between Bolivia and Brazil in Group B of the CONMEBOL Copa América Femenina 2025™. The Gonzalo Pozo Ripalda Stadium will once again host both teams in this edition.

Bolivia looks to bounce back from a 4-0 loss to Paraguay in their opener and earn their first points in the tournament. They also have the chance to achieve a historic result in what will be their fifth encounter against Brazil at the competition.

Brazil, on the other hand, opened with a solid 2-0 win over Venezuela and could secure the group lead with another victory—something no other team could match after the second matchday.
