The Canadian women's team will get another crack at beating Brazil when it closes out its two-match international friendly series against the South Americans this week.

Brazil earned a 1-0 win on Saturday at Montreal's Stade Saputo when Debinha's shot from distance deflected past Canadian goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan in stoppage time in what was virtually the last kick of the game. The visitors outshot Canada 15-9 (9-3 in shots on target).

Canada's previous game in the Maritimes was on May 30, 2012, when it defeated China 1-0 in Moncton courtesy of a goal from Christine Sinclair.

Here’s what you need to know about Tuesday's match between Canada and Brazil at Halifax's Wanderers Grounds (6:30 p.m. ET/OneSoccer).
