In the complement, those led by Christian Meloni constantly sought to reduce the differences, although Brazil would not stop attacking.
Thus, there was a back-and-forth match with many emotions, which would have one more shout for the Albicleste thanks to the goal from Josefina Galarza, who was only 14 years old.
However, the National Team failed to reach a tie and ended up being runner-up in the 2026 South American Under 17 Women's Championship.
Thus, the Albiceleste managed to qualify for the first time in its history to the Under 17 Women's World Cup, which this time will be played from October 17 to November 7 in Morocco and will have six groups of four teams each.
