note
Cristiane plays football since
childhood. Her mother enrolled her in
ballet and artistic gymnastics classes
but she really liked to play football in
the street. At the age of 14 she took a
test at the Juventus Club and one year
later she was already a member of the
Brazilian national team. Her first great
moment with the national team was
the golden goal she scored to
guarantee the gold medal at the
Santo Domingo 2003 Pan American
Games. She was the best scorer at the
Athens Olympic Games with 5 goals
just as the German player Prinz.
