Letícia Santos is back in a Brazil jersey, Alexandra Johannsdottir recorded a win with Iceland while Germany’s women had a tough time against Chile.

Austria lost their friendly with Italy 3-2 on Monday in Vienna, with Eintracht trio Laura Feiersinger, Barbara Dunst and Verena Aschauer all featuring. Santos is back There were far fewer goals on Monday evening when Brazil took on Canada, with the match ending 0-0. Letícia Santos was an unused substitute but prior to that, her Brazil side had defeated Russia 3-0 in another friendly, where Santos made her international comeback from the cruciate ligament injury she suffered back in March 2020. She was in the starting line-up and put in a good performance. Germany struggle against Chile Germany and Chile also played out a 0-0 draw in Offenbach. Sophia Kleinherne was on the pitch for the full 90 minutes, while Laura Freigang and Sjoeke Nüsken were taken off after 68 minutes. In a previous match, Germany’s women lost 1-0 to France in Strasbourg, where Freigang and Kleinherne were both unused substitutes. The only player to enjoy a win on Tuesday evening was Alexandra Johannsdottir. The Iceland international was in action for 45 minutes against Republic of Ireland, with her team running out 2-0 winners. This was Iceland’s second victory in a row against the Irish, after beating them 3-2 the previous Friday, when Johannsdottir played the full 90 minutes. Prasnikar scores for Slovenia There was also success for Lara Prasnikar as Slovenia defeated Croatia 4-1 in their final warm-up before World Cup qualifying gets under way in September, despite conceding the opening goal of the game. The SGE striker played her part, looking as cool as ever in front of goal to score the second and give her country a lead that they would not relinquish.
