Brazilian futsal team to re-gather against Hungary in friendly

October 29, 2010

Days after losing to Spain in the finals of the VI Grand Prix of Futsal, Brazil head coach Marcos Sorato put together a new list of players on Thursday.

The loss to Spain snapped Brazil's 163-game winning streak.

The Brazilian national team will take their first steps towards re-creating their phenomenal streak in November. Sorato has scheduled two friendly matches against Hungary's national indoor soccer team.

Due to the finals of the indoor soccer league (Liga Futsal) in Brazil, Sorato will be unable to count on some of his stars, including fan favorite Falcao and Lenisio. Both play for Malwee/Cimed and will play against Carlos Barbosa in the league finals.

The friendlies against Hungary will take place on November 7 and 9 with the first in Cuiaba, Mato Grosso, and the second in Joinville, Santa Catarina.
