Newswire From a news agency Context piece
  • Argentina opened the Women's Under-20 World Cup with a 3-0 defeat by hosts Poland in Group A.
  • Brazil began its Group B campaign with a 4-1 victory over Tanzania after recovering from a first-half equalizer.
  • Argentina's loss leaves its qualification hopes under pressure from the opening match.

Argentina began the Women's Under-20 World Cup with a 3-0 defeat against hosts Poland in Group A, while Brazil opened its campaign with a 4-1 win over Tanzania in Group B.

Poland took the lead through Oliwia Zwiazek in the 26th minute. Argentina then conceded an own goal by Annika Paz four minutes later, before Maja Zielinska completed the victory in the fifth minute of stoppage time.

The result immediately complicated Argentina's chances of reaching the knockout rounds. Brazil, by contrast, made a strong start. Thaynara put the team ahead in the 14th minute, but Tanzania equalized through Winfrida Gerald before halftime.

Brazil settled the match after the break. Evelin scored twice, and Vitorinha added another goal to secure the 4-1 victory.
