In the penultimate match of the Women's U-20 South American Championship, Ecuador and Brazil played to a 1-1 draw, with both teams already qualified for the World Cup. Brazil's Vitorinha put the Verdeamarela ahead in the 12th minute, demonstrating their strong offensive capability. However, Ecuador equalized in the 69th minute with an own goal from Brazilian defender Thay, highlighting the unpredictability of the match.

The game was intense, and just ten minutes after equalizing, Ecuador's Giselle had the opportunity to give her team the lead and potentially secure the championship for Brazil, but her penalty hit the right post, a critical moment in the match. Despite the near-miss, Ecuador's performance in this match kept them firmly in contention for the title of the tournament, which historically has been dominated by Brazil.

Currently, Brazil leads the group with ten points from three matches, having won every edition of the tournament thus far, while Ecuador sits close behind with eight points. The draw reignites the competition as Ecuador seeks to challenge Brazil's long-standing supremacy in this championship, illustrating the growing competitiveness of women's football in the region.
