Idg why this is a rule. So dumb.

For me, the perfect scenario to Brazil in womens in a group with: Norway, Russia, Montenegro, Argentina and Angola.

 

Norway is the best team in world and Brazil always had trouble against Russia in history, then it is preferable to escape the two in quarter-finals. Argentina and Angola are the weakest teams, which may allow Brazil rotate the squad and save energy if play sufficiently well.

 

In all, the quarter-finals will be very hard anyway.

I just hope to avoid Brazil in both if possible. Don't want to give them 2 easy satisfactions  we are not going to win any matches anyway.

Clever choice from Brazil coach, he gave priority to having a QF against either an unexperienced or underperforming team instead of just beating Korea and Argentina to pass group. Strong feeling all medallists will come from group A.
